Masson’s A Child Speaks from the Warsaw Ghetto: My Kaddish,” by Elżbieta Janicka “Recollections of Terri,” by Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson About the AuthorReviews“Within the vast, ever-increasing Holocaust literature, Thérèse C. Masson’s childhood memoir stands out. My Kaddish is a compelling, intriguing testimony. … [It] is a ‘lighthouse’ that provides guidance for Holocaust research, education, and remembrance. … My Kaddish depicts the landscapes of [Thérèse’s] early childhood, transforming them into memorial sites. Visual images and sensory triggers link the past and present… What finally emerges is a striking self-analysis which not only illustrates how this childhood memoir has been constructed but also reveals the psychological burdens and damage of a child survivor. My Kaddish is an important and challenging autobiographical account of the trauma, the wounds, Thérèse experienced as a child during the Holocaust—wounds which never healed and that shaped her postwar life.” — Emeritus Professor Dr. Konrad Kwiet, Sydney Jewish Museum, from the preface “Within the vast, ever-increasing Holocaust literature, Thérèse C.
