Fresh Wounds: Early Narratives of Holocaust Survival
ISBN: 9780807872406 / Angielski / Miękka / 432 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Every student of the Holocaust knows the crucial importance of survivors' testimonies in reconstructing the crime.

In 1946, Russian-born American psychologist David P. Boder interviewed 109 victims of Nazi persecution--the majority of them Jews--in "Displaced Persons" camps across Europe. The thirty-six accounts collected here possess an immediacy and authenticity that might otherwise be...
