Her analysis of Albert Camus's <strong><em>The</em></strong><strong><em>Plague</em></strong> and <strong><em>The Fall</em></strong> as Holocaust literature is compelling, so muchso that it drove this reader to reread these works and to read them quite differently." -- <strong><em>Oral</em></strong><strong><em>History Review</em></strong><br />". . . a remarkable book for many reasons. <strong><em>Testimony</em></strong> endows the survivor, the victim and its witness with a sober and forceful way of attesting to the unnamable and invisible presence of its event." -- <strong><em>Psychoanalytic Books</em></strong></p>
