Overview

In her first monograph The Children of Bergen-Belsen, Maria Klenner focuses on the fates of 2,000 children who were born right after the end of the Second World War in the displaced persons camp set up by the Allies in Bergen-Belsen. Over the course of eight years, 26 portraits and eyewitness accounts by descendants of Holocaust survivors could be gathered to form a valuable collection. Combined with archival material and historical images, this sensitive study sheds light on questions of history and migration, identity and belonging, trauma and new beginnings - questions that haven't lost any of their relevance until today.
