An intriguing analysis of how place constructs memory and how
memory constructs place, Remembering the Holocaust shows how
visiting sites such as Auschwitz shapes the transfer of Holocaust
memory from one generation to the next. Through the discussion of a
range of memoirs and novels, including Landscapes of Memory by Ruth
Kluger, Too Many Men by Lily Brett, The War After by Anne Karpf and
Everything is Illuminated by Jonathan Safran Foer, Remembering the
Holocaust reveals the pivotal yet complicated role of place in each
generation's writing about the Holocaust. This book provides an
insightful and nuanced investigation of the effect of the Holocaust
upon families, from survivors of the genocide to members of the
second and even third generations of families involved. By
deploying an innovative combination of generational and literary
study of Holocaust survivor families focussed on place, Remembering
the Holocaust makes an important contribution to the field of
Holocaust Studies that will be of interest to scholars and anyone
interested in Holocaust remembrance.
