Overview
- Summary
- Drawing on archives and interviews, Clifford charts the experiences of these child survivors and those who cared for them--as well as those who studied them, such as Anna Freud. Survivors explores the aftermath of the Holocaust in the long term, and reveals how these children--often branded "the lucky ones"--had to struggle to be able to call themselves "survivors" at all. Challenging our assumptions about trauma, Clifford's powerful and surprising narrative helps us understand what it was like living after, and living with, childhoods marked by rupture and loss.
