O knihe
«Dr. Laima Vinc¿ Sruoginis, an established author, academic, and life-long part of the North American Lithuanian diaspora, courageously faces Lithuaniäs difficult historical legacy in her ground-breaking book. She researched her community¿s refugee ancestors, drawing both from personal interviews and dusty academic sources, confronting uncomfortable truths.» (Philip S. Shapiro, President, Remembering Litvaks, Inc.) As World War II ended, refugees fled Soviet-occupied Lithuania, finding shelter in the displaced persons camps of Europe. By 1949, most had emigrated to North America. They brought with them opposing narratives about the Nazi occupation (1941¿1944) when 95 percent of Lithuaniäs Jewish community was annihilated. Trauma narratives were passed down to the second and third generations through collective memory. Through postmemory, cultural memory, and trauma theory, Vanished Lands analyzes literary works by North American Jewish and Lithuanian writers who speak over the silence of decades, seeking answers.
