Yervant Odian more known by his satire name "Comrade Panchooni", is considered to be one of the most influential Armenian satirists, along with the roughly contemporary Hagop Baronian. Odian was born into one of the most affluent families in what was then Constantinople. His Paternal Uncle Krikor Odian (1834-1887) was a respected political figure and was even one of the founders and writers of the Armenian National Constitution. His father too was a writer, along with having been a political diplomat and possibly most unique of all, a translator of Victor Hugo's. Odian's mother was indeed wealthy on her side of the family as well. Odian's writings, which include novels and short stories, often humorously point out humanity's vices. Odian's heritage played a major role in some of his major themes, those being Armenian-Turkish relations as well as Muslim-Christian relations. Interestingly enough, Odian's grandfather Yazedje Boghos Agha was from Palu, Turkey, a town notable for its massive Armenian population, a major part of its destruction during the Armenian massacre events of the 1894-1896. He had the unique ability to conceive of and write stories at any given instant. In a 2013 piece written by Eddie Arnavoudian, he proclaimed "Even if elsewhere equalled in modern Armenian literature, Odian's exposure of the establishment's putrid core has certainly not been bettered". Odian's writing styles are often described as extroverted, as if his is removing his persona from the piece in order to best portray the truth. Though Odian was surrounded by nearly all of the other great Armenian writers of his time, and friendly with many of them, their writing styles never altered his own, always staying true to his voice.
