Holocaust Chronicles: Individualizing the Holocaust Through

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Shapiro, Robert M., PUBLISHER: Ktav Publishing House, The huge number of victims of the Holocaust is emotionally incomprehensible. The real horror can only be apprehended on the individual level. In the case of the Holocaust, many such records exist, since, as Ruth Wisse has observed, "many of the Jews in the ghettos and concentration camps... showed more concern for preserving a record of the incredible event they were witnessing than for their own survival." The studies presented in this volume survey this evidence--diaries, letters, oral histories, ghetto chronicles, rabbinic works, collections of photographs, songs--that originated in Warsaw, Lodz, Vilna, Auschwitz, and elsewhere. Together these documents allow us to gain some inkling of the experience of those who suffered in the ghettos and concentration camps--without the coloration and rethinkings of later recollections.

While studying in Paris, Ani Silver receives a letter from her New England boyfriend ending their relationship. Thus begins a series of romantic misadventures, culminating in her reconnection with a childhood friend. Their shared preoccupation with their Armenian heritage provides Ani with a new facet to her own identity--even as she begins to suspect that her friend has a secret--and dangerous--identity. Funny and heartbreaking to its bold and exquisite conclusion. Dreams of Bread and Fire is an irresistible novel of passion, ideals, and the temptations of trying to outrun our origins.
