“Victoria Aarons and Phyllis Lassner expertly demonstrate in their comprehensive and thought-provoking Palgrave Handbook of Holocaust Literature and Culture, this is even truer when the event is the Holocaust, the texts are literary and cultural, and those reassembling them today are already the third generation born since the event. … Along with the accolades for this remarkable handbook, one can only hope that such a volume will be written in the not-too-distant future.” (Judith Tydor Baumel-Schwartz, Journal of Modern Jewish Studies, April 29, 2022) “The Palgrave Handbook of Holocaust Literature and Culture will no doubt become an invaluable contribution to future Holocaust research. … This collection is a fine example of interdisciplinarity that will support learning and reference for researchers of all interests and abilities. The Palgrave Handbook of Holocaust Literature and Culture will prove itself to be a vital asset to any learner, expressing the sheer potentiality of the field to resonate with an abundance of cultural discussions.” (Kieran J. H. Shackleton, Textual Practice, January 13, 2021)
