Voices on War and Genocide: Three Accounts of the World Wars in a Galician Town: 30 - Omer Bartov Book
Taking as its point of departure Omer Bartovs acclaimed Anatomy of a Genocide, this volume brings together previously unknown accounts by three individuals from Buczacz. These rare narratives give personal glimpses into daily life in unsettled times: a Polish headmaster during World War I, a Ukrainian teacher and witness to both Soviet and German rule, and a Jewish radio technician, genocide survivor, and member of the Polish resistance. Together, they offer a prismatic perspective on a world remote from our own that nonetheless helps us understand how people not unlike ourselves responded to mass violence and destruction.
P>Review "Voices on War and Genocide assembles three extraordinarily rich personal accounts covering different periods and aspects of the history of the Galician town and region of Buczacz. Such narratives are extremely rare; even rarer are ones that are as informative and illuminating as these three." - Thomas Khne, Clark University About the Author: Omer Bartov is the Samuel Pisar Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University.
