About this item

by Sandra Alfers (Author), Cornelius Partsch (Other)

A collection of poetry from the Holocaust leads the author to uncover the remarkable story of Else Dormitzer. The book traces her life from pre-war Nuremberg to war-torn Amsterdam, from the confines of the Theresienstadt ghetto to post-war life in London. The result is a deeply personal story of a woman at the margin of memory.
