Literature by Child Survivors of the Holocaust  
Memoir and fiction by writers who lived through the Holocaust. Ruth Kluger's memoir Still Alive: A Holocaust Girlhood Remembered, life in the Czechoslovakian concentration camp Theresienstadt, and how children experienced the trauma differently from adults. How a child's naive perspective produces irony in Fateless, a novel by the Nobel Prize-winning Hungarian survivor Imre Kertész. Struggling with the absence of memory in the Romanian-born Aharon Appelfeld's The Age of Wonders.
