Description
Discusses the gendered responses to hunger in the concentration camps and the "connections with food that partially define who we are". States that food preparation - cooking - as a communal activity engaged in by women who were trapped in the "Final Solution' and , further, that this activity 'food talk' - had an ironic effect for many women.
