Description
This book explores mediated memories of the Holocaust in Lithuania from 1990 until today. The analysis focuses on press, photographs, and films. Examines the history of the Holocaust in German occupied Lithuania as well as its memorialization in Soviet Lithuania and in the Lithuanian-American exile community. A substantial examination of the construction of Holocaust memories in the Soviet times and in the Lithuanian exile in the post war years is crucial in understanding the development of Holocaust narratives and iconographies in Lithuania after 1990.
