Girl with Two Landscapes: The Wartime Diary of Lena Jedwab

Dorothée Rozenberg, daughter of Lena Jedwab Rozenberg, joins The Shmooze to talk about her mother’s wartime diary, Girl with Two Landscapes: The Wartime Diary of Lena Jedwab. Lena wrote her diary in Yiddish not only because it was her mother tongue but also as a conscious effort to maintain her Jewish identity. Her writing has left us a moving testimony to some of history’s darkest days. The book was translated by Solon Beinfeld.
