'Granddaughters of the Holocaust: Never Forgetting What They Didn't
Experience' delves into the intergenerational transmission of
trauma to the granddaughters of Holocaust survivors. Although
members of this generation did not endure the horrors of the
Holocaust directly, they absorbed the experiences of both their
parents and grandparents. Ten women participated in psychoanalytic
interviews about their inheritance of Holocaust knowledge and
memory, and their responses to this legacy. These women provided
startling evidence for the embodiment of Holocaust residue in the
ways they approached daily tasks of living and being. The resulting
narratives revealed that frequently unspoken, unspeakable events
are inevitably transmitted to, and imprinted upon, succeeding
generations. Granddaughters continue to confront and heal the pain
of a trauma they never experienced.
