Anglo-Jewish women writing the Holocaustdisplaced witnesses /[electronic resource] :Phyllis Lassner. - Basingstoke [England] ;Palgrave Macmillan,2008. - ix, 225 p.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 190-218) and index.

Other people's houses : remembering the Kindertransport -- Karen Gershon : stranger from the Kindertransport -- Dramas of the Kindertransport and its aftermath -- The transgenerational hauntingof Anne Karpf and Lisa Appignanesi -- Elaine Feinstein's Holocaust imagination -- Displaced witnesses : the dramas of Julia Pascal's and Sue Frumin's Holocaust dramas.

In its rigorously researched analysis of Anglo-Jewish women writing the Holocaust, this book highlights the necessity of their inclusion inthe evolving canon of modern British literature. Addressing the question of why the Holocaust is still being written, this study brings together Kindertransport writers, those of the Second Generation and those writers who have no personal or communal connection to the Holocaust butwho have felt compelled to testify to the painful adaptations or betrayals of refugees by the nation which rescued so many. In her significant critical interpretations of memoirs, plays, poetry and novels, Lassner shows how these writers complicate theories of trauma andmemory by using fantasy and the Gothic as a response to silence as well as to the historical and narrative relationship between endangered European Jews and Britain's cultural and political responsesto them.
