The book contains articles by some of the most prominent scholars in the field who tell the stories of women who were humiliated; tortured and murdered; their eternally etched-in-the-memory stories of struggle and survival. This collection of articles is based on two international conferences on women in the Holocaust; held in recent years at Beit Berl Academic College; Beit Theresienstadt; and the Ghetto Fighters House in Israel. The editor; Esther Hertzog; is a daughter of Holocaust survivors; who never spoke about the subject at home. She discovered a feminist perspective on the Holocaust at a conference at Oxford she attended; almost by chance; seven years ago. That experience motivated her to speak with her mother and document their conversations in the article that appears herein.
