The Words to Remember It - 9781921372636

In this indescribably moving collection, the 31 members of the Sydney Child Holocaust Survivors Group share personal stories of their unfathomable experiences of loss—and of their ultimate endurance—from their youths in Nazi Germany. Each experience remains an indelible trauma that affects each contributor in profound and unspeakable ways. For many, finding ways to remember their past was the beginning of a painful reintegration of their sense of self, allowing survivors to expand their stories into a broader picture of life before, during, and after the Second World War across a range of locales—from Paris to Warsaw, Berlin to Prague, and Vilno to Shanghai. Compiled poignantly with a foreword from Caroline Jones, one of Australia's most respected broadcast journalists, these survivors were able to find relief in finally connecting their memories with context and meaning, sharing their collective voices to help the rest of the world come one step closer to comprehending the lasting anguish of the Nazi genocide.
