ros, Gershon J. Molad, George Pick, Rachel Rosenblum, Tamara
Stajner-Popovic, Riccardo Steiner, Judit Szekacs-Weisz, Judith E.
Vida, Shula Wilson, and Ali Zarbafi. Lost Childhood and the
Language of Exile invites the reader to enter a territory which is
not only multilingual but multidimensional: defined and shaped by
history, politics, economy, and sociocultural transformations. The
contributions give important insights on the psychodynamic
processes involved in working with, and being part of, exiled and
immigrant populations. The majority of the stories take as their
base the upheaval caused by the Second World War but their stories
are still, sadly, relevant today with the ongoing plight of
refugees the world over. By presenting their experiences, the
contributors provide a vital record of what it means to leave your
homeland behind, to make a new life in a new land, and to live and
work in a second tongue. The aim was, and is, to provide stimulus
for further thinking and research. Two contributors, Ali Zarbafi
and Shula Wilson, took up that challenge and we were delighted to
publish their contribution to this debate in their edited work,
Mother Tongue and Other Tongues: Narratives in Multilingual
Psychotherapy (2021).
