The Sound of an Ordinary Life by Alis Cerrahyan Receives Multiple Awards

United States, 18th Apr 2025, –
 

The Sound of an Ordinary Life, a deeply personal and evocative memoir by Alis Cerrahyan, has been named a recipient of The World’s Best Book Awards Book of Excellence title. The award follows the book’s extensive recognition.

The book also recently received accolade from other award-giving platforms, including the following: 

• International Impact Book Awards
• Literary Titan Gold Book Award
• Uplifting Lit Award
• The Bookish Reader’s Pick Award
• Atlas of Stories Book Award
• Beyond Boundaries Reads Award
• Book World Front Award
• Booknomad Tales Five Stars Award
• Global Spines Book Award
• Ink and Horizons Book Award
• The Narrative Voyager Award
• Voyages of Verses Book Award
• Book Excellence Award

The book has been praised for its “soul laid bare, stitched together with raw emotion and the quiet ache of self-reckoning” and invites readers to “feel the weight of inherited silence and the tremors of self-discovery.” Cerrahyan’s prose flows with a “poetic precision without indulgence,” refusing to drown in despair but instead moving “toward something resembling peace.”

Alis Cerrahyan’s memoir is described as “not just a retelling of the past, but a reclamation of self.” Her writing takes readers on a journey of self-discovery, encouraging a shift from seeing oneself as a victim of past experiences to embracing the potential for growth and healing. The work moves through raw emotions without wallowing in despair, instead exploring themes of reconciliation, love, and the quiet courage to move toward peace.

The book’s message is both poignant and hopeful. It is not a perfect melody, but an honest one—a reflection of growth and the resilience to move beyond past limitations. As Cerrahyan herself shares: “The reason behind The Sound of an Ordinary Life is to help others see themselves not as the victims of their past experiences, but as the beautiful creations God had intended them to be.”

Upon receiving news of the Book of Excellence award, Alis Cerrahyan expressed her gratitude, saying, “When I wrote The Sound of an Ordinary Life, I wasn’t thinking of recognition and winning awards. I was simply looking to make a difference by sharing the most intimate details of my life, hoping they motivate others to think they are not alone, and if I can free myself from a toxic past, so can they. Receiving The World’s Best Book Awards Book of Excellence title has validated my views about how we must treat everyone without discrimination, sprinkling love, compassion, and kindness, just so they can start seeing themselves from a different perspective, full of potential with unrestrained goodness and valuable abilities. Thank you for seeing my heart.”

Cerrahyan’s powerful words are a reminder that the journey to self-empowerment is one of self-reclamation. Through the metaphor of the Monarch butterfly, she draws a parallel between personal growth and transformation, inviting readers to shed the constraints of their past and fly toward new horizons. “The Monarch Butterfly has a brain the size of a pinprick and an extremely delicate body made of a tissue-like substance. Yet this beautiful creature makes a 4,385-mile roundtrip journey between Brazil and Nova Scotia… What if we could treat our past as a caterpillar or a chrysalis, and try to focus on developing our wings, just so we can fly to better horizons?”
