Who are you, Yerevan?

In the songs, Yerevan is pink, with cold springs, an intimate, capital of heart and love.  Yerevan is different in modern literature. Another collapsing building, faded wallpaper, failed love, a story of humiliation, labyrinth, etc.  How is Yerevan in literature? Has literature found its Yerevan?  Yerevayan's originals are read in parallel by literary critics Hayk Hambardzumyan and Arkmenik Nikoghosyan.
