In Uncharted Canvas, Rouben Simonian shares his remarkable journey from a childhood in Beirut—shaped by the legacy of the Armenian Genocide—to a successful architectural career in America. From the shores of the Mediterranean to the counterculture of Brussels and ultimately to Memphis, Tennessee, Rouben’s story spans continents, cultures, and generations. This moving memoir explores themes of identity, resilience, and rediscovery, as Rouben reconnects with lost family and finds new purpose in his ancestral homeland. Blending personal history with professional triumph, Uncharted Canvas is a powerful testament to the enduring spirit of one man shaped by both tragedy and hope.
