Many books on Holocaust survivors deal with their lives in the
Displaced Persons camps, with memory and remembrance, and with the
nature of their testimonies. Representing scholars from different
countries and different disciplines such as history, sociology,
demography, psychology, anthropology, and literature, this
collection explores the survivors' return to everyday life and how
their experience of Nazi persecution and the Holocaust impacted
their process of integration into various European countries, the
United States, Argentina, Australia, and Israel. Thus, it offers a
rich mix of perspectives, disciplines, and communities.
Drawing on testimonies, memoirs, and personal interviews of
Holocaust survivors, Francoise S. Ouzan reveals how the experience
of Nazi persecution impacted their personal reconstruction,
rehabilitation, and reintegration into a free society. She sheds
light on the life trajectories of various groups of Jews, including
displaced persons, partisan fighters, hidden children, and refugees
from Nazism. Ouzan shows that personal success is not only a
unifying factor among these survivors but is part of an ethos that
unified ideas of homeland, social justice, togetherness, and
individual aspirations in the redemptive experience. Exploring how
Holocaust survivors rebuilt their lives after World War II, Ouzan
tells the story of how they coped with adversity and psychic trauma
to contribute to the culture and society of their country of
residence.
