Verk Hayastani - Wounds of Armenia is a 1841 historical novel by Khachatur Abovian. Written in the Araratian (Yerevan) dialect, it was Abovian's debut novel, the first Armenian novel and the first modern Eastern Armenian literary work. The novel recounts an incident which happened in his hometown Kanaker during the Russo-Persian War of 1826–1828. A young Armenian girl named Takhuni is kidnapped by soldiers of Hossein Khan Sardar, the head of the Persian political entity around Yerevan. Aghasi, who is the main hero, kills the Sardar's men and saves her. The Persian governor's brother Hassan decides to punish Aghasi and thus destroys a number of Armenian towns.
