The unique "diary" presented through illustrations is based on Sargis Mangasaryan's memories and the most breathtaking events of his difficult and unusual path. To highlight the validity of the story, the book contains archives, photos, parts from letters, and diary notes. These materials help to recreate scenes of the vicious and inhuman era which was fated to the artist. Stalinist repressions, war, slavery, barriers for creativity... Adventures that only a strong individual can survive, even though, usually, a person's individuality lost its value and meaning. For his memories the artist chose the title "Zako: Green fruit" without giving any comments. A person who learned the art of keeping a diary and writing so concretely and honestly, could not find any words to add to the title, "Zako: Green fruit."
