Description
Book SynopsisRemembrance of a once-thriving Jewish culture in Slovakia
Trade ReviewThis slim catalog of the recent exhibit by award-winning photographer Yuri Dojc gives the reader a new viewpoint of the indescribable loss of the Holocaust. The accompanying text describing the journey that produced these pictures is well written and concise.
* AJL Reviews *
Each picture not only grabs your attention because of the technique and chilling content, but also because of the raw emotion of the images, themselves beautiful objects. Dojc's work reminds us of a once vibrant community now lost.July 17, 2011
* Bloomington Herald-Times *
[This book] is visually stunning and verbally bold.
* Canadian Jewish News *
Dojc's images beautifully commemorate the history of the Jewish people and culture of slovakia. . . . The texts by Katya Krausova, Azar Nafisi, and Lufia Faltin provide meaningful context, and the subject matter is treated with deep respect and sensitivity.
