Holocaust Literature

Paper instructions:
Hannah Krall’s The Woman of Hamburg and Sherri Szeman’s The Kommandant’s Mistress, bring to light the phenomenon of sexual abuse and violence during WW II.

A. How does the sexual abuse depicted help the reader fill in the gender gap which existed for many decades in Shoah literature and scholarship?

B. Do these pieces of literature help separate or merely distinguish women’s experience from men’s? Is this important?
DO NOT summarize the stories but delve straight into the works (I will attached both short stories)

Two important sources for this include:

Chapter 11 Sexual Abuse in Holocaust Literature (p.177-199) in Sonja M. Hedgepeth’s Sexual Violence against Jewish Women during the Holocaust.
