Anne Frank
The Anne Frank House Authorized Graphic Biography

"It is important to me to teach about the Holocaust in a way that puts it into historical context, portrays how brutal it actually was, and makes it personal, all at the same time.
Anne Frank: The Anne Frank House Authorized Graphic Biography
, does all of this in one compelling, hard-to-put-down volume . . . My challenge as a teacher . . . is always to find the most engaging resources and to make them accessible to my students.

The Antelope's Strategy
Living in Rwanda After the Genocide
Jean Hatzfeld; Translated from the French by Linda Coverdale
Picador
"'Why keep on?' asks Claudine Kayitesi, a Tutsi survivor living in relative peace in Nyamata, Rwanda. Her question is not a philosophical one, though that would be understandable given what she has experienced—rape, displacement, the murder of a sister and many others. Rather, her query is directed at the persistent questions of the French journalist Jean Hatzfeld, who has returned to the war-torn landscape he wrote about in two previous books,
The Machete Season
and
Life Laid Bare
, to speak again to survivors and perpetrators of the 1994 genocide. Why Hatzfeld keeps on asking questions is among the many thought-provoking issues at the heart of his new book,
The Antelope's Strategy
. Seven years after his reporting for
Machete Season
, Hatzfeld finds a much-changed Rwanda: The terrors of war have been replaced by an awkward—and sometimes dangerous—atmosphere of forced reconciliation. Some Hutu prisoners have been released or have returned from exile to live among the families of those they killed. 'Not one prisoner came asking for forgiveness,' says Kayitesi. A Hutu ex-convict notes, 'I was charged, I was convicted, I was pardoned. I did not ask to be forgiven.' Hatzfeld captures this tension gracefully, weaving lengthy interview excerpts with his own artfully written observations. The result is a book that illustrates vividly the thorny realities that accompany survival and appeasement. 'People are living peacefully, but actually they are avoiding one another,' Kayitesi comments in the book's final pages. 'We'll be humble and nice, we'll share, we'll cooperate as we should. But believing them is unthinkable.'"—

The Boy
A Holocaust Story
Dan Porat
Hill and Wang
“A gripping, harrowing Holocaust story, based mostly on facts, but embroidered with probabilities and imaginative suppositions derived from the characters and events involved . . . Mr. Porat has given the world a far greater insight into the hellish universe surrounding the photograph, but, as he suggests, he has not ultimately penetrated its essential mystery. And that mystery may be one reason the photograph will endure.”—

Churchill and the Jews
A Lifelong Friendship
Martin Gilbert
Holt Paperbacks
“As Martin Gilbert suggests in his consistently absorbing
Churchill and the Jews: A Lifelong Friendship
, there have been few figures in high office in any country who not only admires the Jews for their unique qualities—‘the spirit of their faith and race’ as well as their ‘peculiar genius’—but who also were able to accept them as a people apart, deserving not only tolerance but genuine respect for their differences . . .
Churchill and the Jews
brings together two of Martin Gilbert’s persistent passions: Among his vast output, he has written an eight-volume biography of Churchill and at least as many books on various aspects of Judaism, ranging from histories of Israel to histories of the Holocaust. This book reflects his gifts—he is a demon researcher, drawing on a trove of private correspondence, archival material, and previously unpublished government documents . . . [Gilbert’s] assessment is an accurate one.”—

The Girl in the Green Sweater
A Life in Holocaust's Shadow
Krystyna Chiger with Daniel Paisner
St. Martin's Griffin
"Despite the substantial number of Holocaust memoirs that have been published,
The Girl in the Green Sweater
manages to touch us in an unexpected way, revealing highs and lows in man’s capacity for evil, as well as his capacity to love life and other human beings. Through the eyes of the child that Krystyna Chiger was in Lvov, Poland, in 1939 we see the whole moral universe."

The Hitler Salute
On the Meaning of a Gesture
Tilman Allert
Picador
“Allert’s
The Hitler Salute
, a joyously sharp account of a massively evil slice of human history, doesn’t treat the Nazis’ obligatory two-word, one-arm greeting as a product of evil, but as its enabler. He argues, movingly, that the salute wounded Germans’ sociability, connectedness, and personal sovereignty, warping the holy human order.”—

Holocaust Poetry
Compiled and Introduced by Hilda Schiff
St. Martin's Griffin
"Can there be poetry about the Holocaust? Isn't this kind of writing an attempt to escape—or to exploit—the suffering of millions? Poet and anthologist Schiff confronts these questions in her eloquent introduction. One answer she finds is that to remain silent is also to lie. Fifty years after the liberation of Auschwitz, great literature about the Holocaust has grown to a flood . . . The pieces here are of astonishing power. In English and in translation from many languages, [nearly 60] poets—including Wiesel, Fink, Brecht, Yevtushenko, Auden, and Sachs—give voice to what seems unspeakable. Schiff points out that compelling historical accounts document the facts and numbers, but a poem, like a story, makes us imagine how it felt for one person. These poems are stark and deceptively simple. No one can read them all at once. Each poem leaves you with an indelible memory. In words of one syllable, the Polish poet Rozewicz writes about having to reinvent language after Auschwitz ('this is a man / this is a tree this is bread' ). There's no healing in this tragedy: the last poem, by Primo Levi, is like a shout of rage to us to remember."—
