Book excerpt: A disturbing collections of poetry, Ghosts of the Holocaust reveals the lengthy shadows cast by Hitler's "Final Solution." Stewart Florsheim collected these poems by the second generation, children who grew up in a world that, while comfortable, failed to provide answers about the atrocities to which their elders were victim. The poets reflect on their families' experiences before and after the Holocaust. They write about "adjusting" to a new world, coping with their own problems, and overcoming a very different kind of generation gap. The poems shock us into an awareness that, not only the survivors, but also their children live with a history filled with horror and injustice. As disquieting as most of these poems are, they also affirm life. In his foreword, Gerald Stern writes, "It is not that we will either forget or reclaim those years because of these poems; it is not that the poems will even make the past bearable. It is that, in our greatest loss, we have a victory."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aaron Zeitlin was a living cruse of sacred oil saved from the Holocaust. Wracked by guilt and despair for having survived by chance, Aaron Zeitlin, a Yiddish poet of religious intensity, reconfirmed his faith while memorializing Polish Jewry and his lost family. In Poems of the Holocaust and Poems of Faith, Morris Faierstein succeeds in bringing the reader closer to the unique vision and verse of Zeitlin's afflicted existence. He masterfully illuminates the images and allusions, whether Talmudic, kabalistic or hasidic, that inform and enrich the poetry of Aaron Zeitlin. Faierstein chose the texts he translates with esthetic sensibility and brings across their delicate nuances of insight and emotional challenges. This volume throws open a wholly new area of Jewish poetry, a distinct spiritual perspective and a shared human expression of both the faith and grief of someone faced with the obliteration of his home, family and people. Seth L. Wolitz Gale Chair of Jewish Studies Professor of Comparative Literature University of Texas at Austin This edition of Aaron Zeitlin's Poems of the Holocaust and Poems of Faith introduces the English reader to the work of this remarkable author who embodies the broad culture of Polish Jewry that was virtually annihilated during the Holocaust. Morris Faierstein has done an admirable job in rendering Zeitlin's rich poetry into moving and powerful English, supplemented with annotations to the rich palette of mystical, biblical and religious allusions that illuminate Zeitlin's writing. This is a worthy introduction to the works of a prolific author who collaborated with his younger contemporary, Isaac Bashevis Singer.

Book excerpt: Poems of the Holocaust is a sensitive reflection through poetry of the savagery and inhumanity of the Holocaust, and a determined faith in humankind. My poems are a Eulogy to our loved ones, and to all the millions that were so ruthlessly and senselessly killed. Those who have the audacity to deny the atrocities committed against the six million Jews, those are the people who would not hesitate to continue in Hitler's footsteps if they had the power. We, the survivors, are the very proof to their lies, we are the witnesses to those horrible deeds committed by a so-called 'cultured people' whose tortures surpassed those of the Middle Ages. Dedicated to my family and the six million martyrs Cecilie Klein. Cecile Klein is also the author of 'Sentenced to Live.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories and poems in Truth and Lamentation, written during and after the Holocaust, reveal the human faces hidden behind the all-too-familiar statistics of the event. International in scope, this volume brings together 20 short stories and 90 poems commenting on the essentially incomprehensible nature of the Holocaust. Milton Teichman and Sharon Leder have drawn from a remarkably varied range of writers, representing nine languages and including both Jews and Gentiles. The contributors include the well known and the as yet unknown. A critical introduction places the selections within two broad categories of literary response to the Holocaust - truthtelling and lamentation. The first reflects the desire of writers to transmit multiple truths; the second expresses sorrow and loss.
