Description
Argues the case for women writers of Holocaust fiction as performing a valuable role in enhancing our understanding of the Shoah. Authors discussed include Europeans Ilona Karmel, Elzhieta Ettinger and Americans Cynthia Ozick and Madge Piercy. Their texts are said to contribute "a female-gendered dimension that is absent or severely muted in female writing."
