Description
Résumé:Françoise Ouzan’s How Young Holocaust Survivors Rebuilt their Lives, a volume in Alvin Rosenfeld’s Studies in Antisemitism series, offers an engaging examination of the twists and turns of life faced by young European Jews after the Shoah. Generally, Holocaust memoirs focus on the struggle to survive amidst atrocity. They depict a brief overview of prewar life in the home country and usually end with liberation and the end of the war, omitting the survivor’s reinsertion into postwar life. In this work, Ouzan concentrates on the opportunities and decisions of Jews who chose to settle in France, the United States, or Israel in the aftermath of the war, presenting a picture that demonstrates the uniqueness of each person’s experience.
