May God Avenge Their Blood: a Holocaust Memoir Triptych presents
three memoirs by the Yiddish writer Rachmil Bryks (1912-1974). In
"Those Who Didn't Survive," Bryks portrays inter-war life in his
shtetl Skarzysko-Kamienna, Poland with great flair and rich
anthropological detail, rendering a haunting collective portrait of
an annihilated community. "The Fugitives" vividly charts the
confusion and terror of the early days of World War II in the
industrial city of Lodz and elsewhere. In the final memoir, "From
Agony to Life," Bryks tells of his imprisonment in Auschwitz and
other camps. Taken together, the triptych takes the reader on a
wide-ranging journey from Hasidic life before the Holocaust to the
chaos of the early days of war and then to the horrors of Nazi
captivity. This translation by Yermiyahu Ahron Taub brings the
extraordinary memoirs of an important Yiddish writer to
English-language readers for the first time.
