The Sandcastle Girls by Chris Bohjalian- This fiction about the horrific Armenian genocide during WWI follows two survivors who meet in Allepo, Syria; It alternates between their voices telling about life in a war zone, and that of their grand-daughter who is researching and writing a novel about the insane days of 1915-1916. It is a haunting tale well worth reading.
