<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Poems inspired by the experiences of women during the Holocaust.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>This is a unique and extraordinary collection of poems and narratives which opens new avenues of representation for teaching Holocaust literature. Davi Walders knows so many Holocaust heroes (e.g. Dr. Rita Levi-Monatalcini, Sophie Scholl, Cory Ten Boom, Zivia Lubetkin) so well that she writes persona poems, poems in the voices of the women themselves. I cannot imagine teaching Holocaust literature without "The Silence at Treblinka" or "Lidice Survivor" or any of the invaluable texts she now offers teachers and reader who are willing to open themselves to new and even startling voices.<br /> --Marc Lee Raphael<br /> Nathan and Sophia Gumenick Professor of Judaic Studies, <br /> The College of William and Mary</p><p> </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Davi Walders has written an important book that brings to light many of the roles women played in resistance to the Holocaust.
