Beschreibungen/Notizen

• [...]I know much more about Appelfeld, in certain respects, than I know about my father and mother, who are natives of Hungary and, like him, are Holocaust survivors. Thanks to Appelfeld, I now know more about my mother and father-about the cultural space from which they came, their childhood and youth, their dreams and nightmares, their loves and disappointments, and their complex encounter with the State of Israel. [...]thanks to Appelfeld I know a lot more about what he terms "the Jewish people's hundred years of solitude in modernity," as well as about Western culture, its positive and negative manifestations, and human nature.
