Nachkommen von Holocaust-Überlebenden und -Tätern bieten tiefgreifende Einblicke in die intergenerationalen Auswirkungen ihres Erbes und die Rolle der zweiten Generation bei der Gestaltung des Gedächtnisses an die Shoah. Als Erben des Erbes von Auschwitz wurden die Kinder und Enkel von Holocaust-Überlebenden und -Tätern stets als durch Angst und Wut, Misstrauen und Scham getrennt betrachtet. Diese bahnbrechende Studie bietet ein Forum für den Ausdruck, in dem jede Gruppe offen über die belastenden Lasten und Herausforderungen reflektiert, die sie geerbt hat. In diesen intensiv persönlichen und häufig dramatischen Texten treten verständliche Unterschiede zutage. Die jüdische zweite Generation vereint sich in der Suche nach Erinnerung und Familie. Ihre deutschen Pendants erleben das Gegenteil. Doch überraschende Gemeinsamkeiten kommen ans Licht. Jede Gruppe stammt aus Haushalten, in denen aus ganz unterschiedlichen Gründen der Holocaust nicht erwähnt wurde. Jede kämpft darum, diese Barriere des Schweigens zu durchbrechen. Jede hat das fortwährende Überleben der Eltern miterlebt und muss sich mit dem Leben in Haushalten auseinandersetzen, die von Leugnung heimgesucht werden. Und jede weiss, dass es ihre Aufgabe ist, den Holocaust für zukünftige Generationen zu gestalten. Zweifellos gibt es unter den Gruppen Uneinigkeit über die Notwendigkeit oder Weisheit des Dialogs. Dennoch schafft Second Generation Voices mutig authentische Grundlagen für Diskussionen. Themen wie Schuld, Wut, religiöser Glaube und Verantwortung werden in tief empfundenen Gedichten, Essays und Erzählungen erkundet. Jude und Deutscher sprechen offen darüber, ihre eigenen Identitäten zu bilden und zu bekräftigen, sich mit ihren Wurzeln zu verbinden und ihren eigenen psychologischen Holocaust zu verarbeiten.

Naomi, ein 12-jähriges jüdisches Mädchen, musste während des Zweiten Weltkriegs mit seiner Mutter aus Frankreich nach New York fliehen; den Vater haben die Nazis vor ihren Augen getötet. Dieses Erlebnis hat Naomi zutiefst verstört. Das ehemals fröhliche und kluge Mädchen spricht nicht mehr, zerreißt Papier in kleine Schnipsel und versteckt sich hinter seiner Puppe. Nun wird Alan, ein sportbegeisterter Junge, der im selben Mietshaus lebt, von seinen Eltern gebeten, sich ein wenig um sie zu kümmern. Alan übernimmt anfangs nur widerwillig diese Aufgabe. Schließlich ist Naomi ein Mädchen und ziemlich "meschugge". Aber allmählich gelingt es ihm, Zugang zu Naomi zu finden, ihr Schweigen zu lösen und eine wunderbare Freundschaft zu ihr aufzubauen. Doch dieser Heilungsprozess wird durch ein schwerwiegendes Ereignis in Frage gestellt ... Eine feinfühlige, aber auch humorvolle Interpretation des berührenden Kinder- und Jugendromans aus dem Jahr 1977.

Perfect for fans of Naomi Novik, Laini Taylor, Ava Reid and Erin Morgenstern."Absorbing, thought-provoking and full of twists that will keep fans gripped" - Daily Mail"Combines the magic of Diana Wynne Jones, the mythmaking of Alan Garner, the world building of Patrick Ness and the philosophical depth of Philip Pullman" - LoveReadingCastles traded places sometimes. Everyone knew that. It was always something that might happen, except that it never had.Until all of a sudden it did.Far above the valleys and villages of the Kingdom of Thaletal, a Great Game is played.

Perfect for fans of action-adventure and historical fiction—including novels by such authors as Bernard Cornwell, Steve Berry, Naomi Novik, and Harry Turtledove—this stunning work of alternate history imagines a world in which the Roman Empire has not fallen and the North American continent has just been discovered. In the year 1218 AD, transported by Norse longboats, a Roman legion crosses the great ocean, enters an endless wilderness, and faces a cataclysmic clash of worlds, cultures, and warriors. Ever hungry for land and gold, the Emperor has sent Praetor Gaius Marcellinus and the 33rd Roman Legion into the newly discovered lands of North America. Marcellinus and his men expect easy victory over the native inhabitants, but on the shores of a vast river the Legion clashes with a unique civilization armed with weapons and strategies no Roman has ever imagined. Forced to watch his vaunted force massacred by a surprisingly tenacious enemy, Marcellinus is spared by his captors and kept alive for his military knowledge. As he recovers and learns more about these proud people, he can’t help but be drawn into their society, forming an uneasy friendship with the denizens of the city-state of Cahokia. But threats—both Roman and Native—promise to assail his newfound kin, and Marcellinus will struggle to keep the peace while the rest of the continent surges toward certain conflict. Praise for Clash of Eagles “That rarest and best of alternative histories: the one you believe, the one that makes sense. Alan Smale has a storyteller’s flair for character, and presents an ensemble cast with a depth of detail of which George R. R. Martin would approve. It works as a novel, as historical speculation, and as cultural extrapolation. But its real value is singular: It’s a ripping good yarn, and one that will keep you reading long past your bedtime.” —Myke Cole, award-winning author of the Shadow Ops series “Just when it seems there is nothing new in [alternate] history comes this debut.” —Library Journal (starred review) “An intriguingly original alternate history.” —Kirkus Reviews “[Smale] breathes life into the New World civilizations and offers up a compelling view of what might have happened had these two continents collided. . . . I found the New World of 1218 AD fascinating.” —Historical Novels Review “Authoritatively researched, compellingly told, and with pleasing echoes of L. Sprague de Camp, Clash of Eagles is a modern masterpiece of what-if speculation.” —Stephen Baxter, Philip K. Dick Award–winning author of The Time Ships “Smale has done remarkable work with the worldbuilding in Clash of Eagles, dropping the sole Roman survivor of a massacre into the complex civilization of the Cahokian Native Americans in the thirteenth century.” —Harry Turtledove, New York Times bestselling author of How Few Remain “My favorite kind of alternate history: epic, bloody, and hugely imaginative.” —John Birmingham, author of Without Warning “Epic in its sweep, exciting in its narrative, and eyeball-kick sharp in its details.” —Nancy Kress, Nebula and Hugo Award–winning author of Beggars in Spain “The first book of Alan Smale’s trilogy introduces the series with a lightning bolt. Bracketed between two breathtaking and meticulously strategized battles is a sensitive evocation of a lost culture, an act of literary archeology like no other I’ve read.” —James Patrick Kelly, Nebula Award–winning author of Burn

From the winner of the Michael L. Printz Honor Award comes a poetry anthology inspired by poets and artists from around the globe. In the groundbreaking tradition of Heart to Heart, this collection examines the connections between an artist's work and a poet's response, putting the artist and poet literally on the same page. With an English translation accompanying each poem in its original language, this is a novel, illuminating way to discover poetry and art together. The poems, most published or translated for the first time in the United States, are surprising and engaging, helping us see art from a fresh perspective. Hailing from thirty-three countries on six continents, the artists and poets included in this collection represent a sampling of the world's diverse art history, from an ancient Egyptian mummy case to a huge contemporary artwork that takes over an entire museum in Sweden. But they also emphasize the universal appeal of art and poetry. In this kaleidoscope of voices and visions, seeing a painting through another person's eyes and understanding a stranger's point of view, shows how similar we all are. REVIEWS: BOOKLIST STARRED : Following a similar format to her 2002 Printz Honor Book, Heart to Heart, Greenberg offers another anthology of accomplished poems inspired by artworks. In this volume, Greenberg extends the book's geographical reach beyond the U.S., bringing together the work of poets and artists from around the globe. As in her Heart to Heart, the poems are grouped loosely into categories, defined in Greenberg's inspirational introduction. Some tell stories; some speak in the voice of an object in the artwork; some explore the interaction between a viewer and an art object; and some focus on the elements of an artwork's composition. Each spread features a poem in its original language, the English translation, and an artwork, usually from the same country or culture as the poem. With few exceptions, the reproductions of the art, which ranges from ancient to contemporary work, are sharp and clear, and the moving, often startling poems invite readers to savor the words and then look closely art each image. Teen will easily connect with the poems' universal themes, including identity, childhood memories, nature's mysterious power, and the powerful emotions and experiences that link us all. Biographical information about both poets and the artists concludes this welcome title, which makes a natural partner to Naomi Shihab Nye's This Same Sky (1992). -Booklist, starred review Children's Literature-- A great introduction to the study of cultural arts is through ekphrasis: poetry inspired by art. This is a terrific way to expose anyone to multiple foreign languages and different types of artifacts. Thirty-three countries are represented from six continents to bring together an extraordinary variety of art and poetry. Poems are shown in their native language--and how often does anyone get to compare written Swedish to Navajo? There is also an astounding assortment of art, from classic paintings such as Botticelli's Portrait of a Young Man, and Matisse's Woman in Blue, to Mexican Musicians, made of ceramic and painted wooden figurines, and a mixed media piece entitled The Malmo Experience by Ernesto Neto. The book has four sections determined by the contents of each poem: Stories, Voices, Expressions, and Impressions. Stories includes poems that tell a story about what is occurring in the art. Voices narrates the poem from the subject's point of view. Expressions is the bond between the viewer and the art, and Impressions is the poet's description of the art. The layout of every page displays both poems and its matching artwork for the best and easiest way to comprehend all pieces as one. There are even biographies of the artists, poets, and translators, as well as a labeled world map to further appreciate the work and diversity that made this book.
