Echoes and Aftershocks - Bog

The horrors of the Holocaust that killed so many Jews and others in World War II echo through decades. Second and third generation children and their descendants can struggle with second-hand PTSD, insomnia and other stresses, often difficult to pinpoint, as they hear, commiserate with and remember their tragic family histories and understand how their racial group was targeted. The author of this collection explores those experiences, having survived World War II as a child in Poland and grown up with her survivor family. The poems also express the hope that all generations can produce changes for peace so that never again will such tragedies decimate any people.
