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.
