Author: Wisenberg, S. L.
Title: Holocaust Girls : History, Memory, and Other Obsessions
Description: Lincoln, University of Nebraska Press, 2002. 139 pp. Remainder-mark on lower edge. Otherwise very good. Hardcover with dustj. This bracing and vivid collection of essays gives voice to what many American Jews feel but don't express about their uneasy state of mind. In confrontation with this self-consciousness characteristic of Jewish culture, S.L. Wisenberg is both engaged and urgent. These essays creatively, and sometimes audaciously, address the question of what it means to be an American Jew trying to negotiate overlapping identities - woman, writer, and urban intellectual in search of a moral way.
