O knihe

In his new collection Terra Treblinka: Holocaust Poems Hanoch Guy brings readers into the rough terrain of Holocaust memory. At once vivid and piercing
these poems neither pretend immediacy nor do they shy away from exploring the intimacies of traumatic memory. Through these poems, Guy constructs links in
the chain of memory. He shows us how extended and intimate engagements with the works of survivor poets and writers make this possible. What he recreates
is not so much the physical landscape of Treblinka but rather its abiding haunting presence. These are fierce and heartbreaking poems. Bristling with
passion and rage, in their specificity these poems demonstrate what it means to keep the legacy of the Holocaust alive in the present.
