HOLOCAUST STUDIES TITLES

SISTER IN SORROW

LIFE HISTORIES OF FEMALE HOLOCAUST SURVIVORS FROM HUNGARY

ILANA ROSEN

"Sister in Sorrow is both moving reading from a personal point of view and fascinating as a schol-
arly work. When it first appeared in public as .a dissertation about thirteen years ago, it was consid-
ered one of the most innovative and mind-shaking studies on the Holocaust and of Jewish folklore.
Rosen's deep understanding and bold usage of the rich theories of oral history, hermeneutics, liter-
ary criticism, psychology, and folklore studies by no means overshadows what might be the most
important contribution of this book to contemporary Jewish culture: her deep sensibility for these
Holocaust women survivors, whose voices are presented faithfully and with deep compassion and
understanding."

— Eli Yassif, Zvi and Sara Berger Professor of Jewish Folk Culture at the School of Jewish Studies, Tel-Aviv University

EDITED BY MARTIN IRA GLASSNER AND ROBERT KRELL

GILBERT MICHLIN

"This collection, compiled by Martin Glassner, of memoirs of Ho-
locaust child survivors covers a wide range of countries (including
prewar Jewish life in Greece and Italy), and commentary by child
psychiatrist and child survivor Robert Krell makes it an unusual addi-
tion to both the Holocaust and trauma literature."

"Michlin has the same understated, dignified, and ostensibly un-
complicated way of speaking about his Shoah experience as has
Primo Levi. What we read here, however, tells us a great deal about
French anti-Semitism and the workings of the Vichy government....
His is an important testimony, one that breaks my heart."

FACING THE GLASS BOOTH

THE JERUSALEM TRIAL OF ADOLF EICHMANN

.

"This book is an eloquent and compassionate work of journalism,
history, and literature. It's a unique achievement in Holocaust writ-
ing. Not until Gouri's courtroom reporting did the young nation of
Israel come to grips with the horrors of World War II. Gouri's narra-
tive must be read and re-read in every home, in every generation."

—Steven T, Katz, professor of religion and director of the Elie Wiesel Center for
Judaic Studies, Boston University

SEVEN JEWS HIDDEN IN HITLER'S BERLIN
BARBARA LOVENHEIM
"At times deeply moving, the book shows in a compelling way the
variety of attitudes among Germans towards the Jews and presents
a dramatic counter-testimony to those who would paint a one-di-
mensional picture."

—Michael Berenbaum, former director of research, U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum
