Mher Shahnazaryan’s short story “Seconds” is a touching and profound narrative about human loneliness, loss, and the relentless passage of time. At the end of the mysterious bond formed between an elderly patient and a young female doctor in a hospital room, a tragic truth is revealed. The story delicately, through psychological layers, explores love, compassion, memory, and the value of those moments that irreversibly fade from a person’s life. We express our gratitude to the prose writer Mher Shahnazaryan for recording his stories and allowing their audio versions to be published for free on our website.
