In this brave and original work, Federica Clementi focuses on the
mother-daughter bond as depicted in six works by women who
experienced the Holocaust, sometimes with their mothers, sometimes
not. The daughters' memoirs, which record the "all-too-human"
qualities of those who were persecuted and murdered by the Nazis,
show that the Holocaust cannot be used to neatly segregate lives
into the categories of before and after. Clementi's discussions of
differences in social status, along with the persistence of
antisemitism and patriarchal structures, support this point
strongly, demonstrating the tenacity of trauma--individual,
familial, and collective--among Jews in twentieth-century
Europe.
