Fictional representations of horrific events run the risk of
undercutting efforts to verify historical knowledge and may
heighten our ability to respond intellectually and ethically to
human experiences of devastation. In this captivating study of the
epistemological, psychological, and ethical issues underlying
Holocaust fiction, Emily Miller Budick examines the subjective
experiences of fantasy, projection, and repression manifested in
Holocaust fiction and in the reader's encounter with it.
Considering works by Cynthia Ozick, Art Spiegelman, Aharon
Appelfeld, Michael Chabon, and others, Budick investigates how the
reading subject makes sense of these fictionalized presentations of
memory and trauma, victims and victimizers.
