Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome (Keepcase) $3.67 Although Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome, the third part of George Miller’s post-apocalyptic Mad Max trilogy, is certainly the least of the bunch (Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior is the undisputed masterpiece, and maybe the best action movie ever made), it has still got a good share of imaginative industrial-wasteland-pastiche imagery. And casting Tina Turner as Aunty Entity, the queen of Bartertown, was a… |

Maus I: A Survivor’s Tale: My Father Bleeds History $8.00 Some historical events simply beggar any attempt at description–the Holocaust is one of these. Therefore, as it recedes and the people able to bear witness die, it becomes more and more essential that novel, vigorous methods are used to describe the indescribable. Examined in these terms, Art Spiegelman’s Maus is a tremendous achievement, from a historical perspective as well as an artistic… |

Hidden Children of the Holocaust $19.48 In the terrifying summer of 1942 in Belgium, when the Nazis began the brutal roundup of Jewish families, parents searched desperately for safe haven for their children. As Suzanne Vromen reveals in Hidden Children of the Holocaust, these children found sanctuary with other families and schools–but especially in Roman Catholic convents and orphanages. Vromen has interviewed not only those who were hidden as children, but also the Christian women who rescued them, and the nuns who gave the children shelter, all of whose voices are heard in this powerfully moving book. Indeed, here are numerous first-hand memoirs of life in a wartime convent–the secrecy, the humor, the admiration, the anger, the deprivation, the cruelty, and the kindness–all with the backdrop of the terror of the Nazi occupation. We read the stories of the women of the Resistance who risked their lives in placing Jewish children in the care of the Church, and of the Mothers Superior and nuns who sheltered these children and hid their identity from the authorities. Perhaps most riveting are the stories told by the children themselves–abruptly separated from distraught parents and given new names, the children were brought to the convents with a sense of urgency, sometimes under the cover of darkness. They were plunged into a new life, different from anything they had ever known, and expected to adapt seamlessly. Vromen shows that some adapted so well that they converted to Catholicism, at times to fit in amid the daily prayers and rituals, but often because the Church appealed to them. Vromen also examines their lives after the war, how they faced the devastating loss of parents to the Holocaust, struggled to regain their identities and sought to memorialize those who saved them. This remarkable book offers an inspiring chronicle of the brave individuals who risked everything to protect innocent young strangers, as well as a riveting account of the "hidden children" who lived to tell their stories. |

Holocaust Literature $15.98 Over the past forty years, the term "Holocaust" has come to represent the deliberate campaign of extermination of Jews by the Nazis of Germany’s Third Reich preceding and during World War II. Masses of edited documents and analytical material have been generated by Holocaust scholars, and some bibliographical and encyclopedic guides to the field are available. However, a student or researcher may be confounded by the abundance of publications and may lack the necessary background and endurance to sift the wheat from the chaff. The present volume has a two-fold purpose: to offer substantial analysis in intrinsic areas of study and to assess the relevant literature in each case. Major scholars and brilliant, less established historians from Israel, Canada, and the United States have contributed more than thirty essays complete with extensive reference lists in three broad divisions. The section on conceptual approaches to the Holocaust is composed of such topics as the rise of national socialism, biographies and interpretations of Hitler, concentration camps, post-Holocaust Jewish philosophies, and the "righteous gentiles." Area studies deal with aspects of the Holocaust in Poland, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Ukraine, the Balkans, France, Holland, Italy, and Spain, and with effects and reactions in Switzerland and Britain. Arab-German collaboration and American responses are also addressed. A third section takes up Holocaust subjects in education, belles lettres, and the arts, including diaries and memoirs, fiction, poetry, books for children, art, music, and films. Although the scholars all provide evaluative surveys of their subjects and related literature, each enjoyed considerable latitude in coverage and each presents his or her own views and selections, not all of which are shared by other contributors or the volume editor. The editor also provides an introduction and a final survey of major institutions and resources for Holocaust study. A significant reference tool, this volume will be consulted by researchers at all levels in university, public, secondary, and parochial school libraries and at religious institutions. |

Holocaust $6.98 Holocaust: Religious and Philosophical Implications is an anthology specifically designed for use as a textbook for courses on the Holocaust in universities and adult study groups. It is a complilation of what are now "classic" pieces in the voluminous literature on the Holocaust – pieces by Raul Hilberg, Hannah Arendt, Primo Levi, George Steiner, Richard Rubenstein and Irving Greenberg – all organized around what the editors have found to be the most often asked questions by their students: (1) Is the Holocaust unique? (2) What really happened in the ghettos and death camps? (3) Who knew what was going on? (4) How could people do the things they did? (5) What about God? Governed by the thesis that the Holocaust left fundamental questions, Holocaust: Religious and Philosophical Implications, in addition to being organized around the five themes identified above, addresses the multiple implications of complexities such as resistance during the Holocaust, and Jewish and Christian identity after Auschwitz. |

A Hero and the Holocaust $14.48 Janusz Korczak was an author, radio personality, teacher, and doctor. But above all else he was a hero. As the beloved director of a Jewish orphanage in Warsaw, Poland, during the years of the Nazi Party’s rise to power, he cared for hundreds of children. They loved him as a father and affectionately called him their "Old Doctor." Korczak could not save his children, but even in the darkest days of the Warsaw ghetto, he strove to protect them. Fianlly, forced to lead his orphans from the ghetto to the Treblinka death camp, Korczak remained with them to the end. This moving account of Janusz Korczak’s life provides a powerful introduction to the tragedies of the Holocaust, but also highlights a remarkable story of courage in its midst. |

Holocaust Now $17.48 A nuclear holocaust is pending as the four children of Mrs. Treven return home for a family reunion. Their marriages reflect the divisions in American society.

It occurs when all of them face doom because of the nuclear holocaust that brings havoc throughout the land. The Lobbyist is an evil that has penetrated American society.

Mr. Iris of the IRS uses the taxpayer’s fear of being caught and exposes all the worst human traits. Even Steven explores in dramatic form the events that take place when a wife invites her husbands former lovers for a weekend. |

After the Holocaust $4.48 Listen to the stories of Alicia, Civia, Ann, George, Judith, Akiva, Larry, and Tonia-eight survivors of the Holocaust, and eight of the bravest, most resilient men and women you’ll ever have the privilege to hear. They came from different parts of Europe-Hungary, Poland, Latvia, Romania — but they were all children when war, persecution, and imprisonment interrupted their lives. And when liberation finally came, they were still young people, alone and homeless in a world that didn’t know what to do with them.The end of World War II is not the end of the story of the Holocaust. Howard Greenfeld’s groundbreaking book features primary source material, as well as more than 80 archival blackand-white photographs, and presents a chapter in history that is often overlooked: from war to liberation to the DP camps to emigration and beyond. Includes historical sidebars, suggestions for further reading and index. |

The Holocaust Kid $5.48 A major work of autobiographical fiction by a second generation Holocaust writer–funny, erotic, irreverent, and deeply moving. The Holocaust Kid belongs to the growing body of work by authors who are children of Holocaust survivors. But from the opening story, "Survivors’ Dance," in which Genia and Heniek meet and fall in love, "throwing themselves against each other, bones clanging with hunger," and Genia watches Heniek shave, "envying his razor, wishing it were her tongue"–we know we are in a passionate, new terrain. In these interconnected stories, we follow Genia and Heniek Palovsky and their daughter in their postwar life, from the Displaced Persons camp in Germany where Zosha is born ("the spitten image of Elizabet Tailor!") to New York City, where Heniek works in a knitting mill and Genia cultivates a circle of survivor friends, all with "Lodz-beige" hair. Zosha is a writer–by day summoning her "shlock muse in rhinestone harlequin glasses, cabana pants, and spiked heels" to write Elizabeth Taylor stories for the readers of Movie Screen and by night, writing "blood-eyed poems" about the Holocaust. Obsessed with events that took place before her birth, Zosha’s entire life is touched by the Holocaust. In "The Big H," she storms the stage of St. John the Divine during a conference to recite her poetry. She falls in love with "her own private Nazi" in "Remember 6,000,000," and then is seduced in "Shoah Casanova" by a Jewish Holocaust scholar who wears "tall, Gestapo black boots" and specializes in kinky sex and betrayal. Finally, "Generation H" explores the special bond "3G" grandson Jesse has with now elderly Heniek and Genia. From her first novel, cult classic Teen Angel (1978), to her widely reprinted 1990 essay "2G," in which she exposed the psychological scars of being a child of survivors, Pilcer has followed the Holocaust legacy as it courses through lust and desire, guilt and fear, and unexpected joy. This long-awaited collection reveals with unflinching honesty and wild humor, the emotional depths beneath the quest to free oneself from an ever-present past. |

Echoes from the Holocaust $14.48 The murder of six million Jewish men, women, and children during World War II was an act of such barbarity as to constitute one of the central events of our time; yet a list of the major concerns of professional philosophers since 1945 would exclude the Holocaust. This collection of twenty-three essays, most of which were written expressly for this volume, is the first book to focus comprehensively on the profound issues and philosophical significance of the Holocaust. The essays, written for general as well as professional readers, convey an extraordinary range of factual information and philosophical reflection in seeking to identify the haunting meanings of the Holocaust. Among the questions addressed are: How should philosophy approach the Holocaust? What part did the philosophical climate play in allowing Hitlerism its temporary triumph? What is the philosophical climate today and what are its probable cultural effects? Can philosophy help our culture to become a bulwark against future agents of evil? The multiple dimensions of the Holocaust—historical, sociological, psychological, religious, moral, and literary—are collected here for concentrated philosophical interpretations. |
