O knihe
The Jewish community of the Polish border town of Brzesc (Brisk in Yiddish),
which had numbered almost 30,000 people, was wiped out during the Holocaust,
with only about 10 of its members surviving. One of them was Masza Pinczuk,
who escaped from the Brzesc ghetto on the eve of its liquidation on Oct. 15,
1942. Her future husband succeeded in escaping from the Warsaw ghetto. They
were the sole survivors of their respective families, and in this volume their
daughter, Regina Grol, shares their story and meditates on the legacy of the
Holocaust, exploring the lingering impact of the Holocaust on the following
generations. Based on interviews and letters, and checked against historical
facts, the book includes supporting documents and photographs. It also contains
an account of the author's "internal flanerie" (to use Walter Benjamin's
term), i.e., a retrospective and introspective look at her own life as a child of Holocaust survivors.
