Asked why none of her five daughters was going to school, she gave a series of knee-jerk responses--as a migrant from the southeastern town of Bitlis, she does not speak Turkish. At this time, Vahan was a member of a large, prosperous family and his father was one of the most important men in their city of Bitlis, in the eastern part of Turkey, far from Istanbul, the capital city.
