Explores how traumatic loss affects identity and how those who are shaped by loss give shape, in turn, to the empty place where something - relationships, family, culture - was and is no longer. Taking the example of the decimation of European Jewry during the Nazi era, this title confronts the problem of transforming trauma into cultural memory.
