Description
This book examines the controversies surrounding Holocaust fiction and explores their reception to analyze the ethics and practice of millennial Holocaust literature.
The novels considered, including some for the first time, are Time's Arrow by Martin Amis, The White Hotel by D.M. Thomas, The Painted Bird by Jerzy Kosinski, Schindler's List by Thomas Keneally, Sophie's Choice by William Styron and The Hand that Signed the Paper by Helen Darville.
Sue Vice argues that Holocaust fiction is a legitimate genre that should be accepted, adding a new voice to debates within Holocaust studies in this growing area of interest.
