Goldie Morgentaler Publishes "Letters from the Afterlife", Exploring a Post-Holocaust Literary Friendship

Last June, Professor Emerita Goldie Morgentaler released Letters from the Afterlife, a powerful new publication from McGill-Queen鈥檚 免费福利资源在线看片 Press. The book chronicles the decades-long correspondence between two female Holocaust survivors鈥擟hava Rosenfarb, a celebrated Yiddish author, and Zenia Larsson, a Swedish sculptor and novelist鈥攚ho sustained their friendship through letters written in Polish, their only shared language.

Extraordinarily little has been written about how women who survived the Holocaust navigated life after the war, coped with trauma, and faced the alienation of rebuilding in unfamiliar countries. Letters from the Afterlife offers rare insight into these experiences, tracing Rosenfarb and Larsson鈥檚 emotional and intellectual journeys as they adjusted to life in Canada and Sweden, respectively鈥攃ountries whose languages and cultures were initially foreign to them.

Childhood friends from Poland, the two women endured the Lodz Ghetto and Nazi death camps together, parting ways after liberation from Bergen-Belsen. Despite the physical distance, their friendship endured for fifty years through written correspondence. Both went on to become distinguished literary figures in their adopted languages, Yiddish and Swedish. In 1972, Larsson published her side of the correspondence in Swedish, a move that temporarily disrupted their bond.

This English edition, with evocative translations by Krzysztof Majer and Sylvia S枚derlind, brings their letters to a wider audience. Morgentaler鈥檚 introduction situates the correspondence within its historical and cultural context, while her epilogue continues the story beyond the letters, reflecting on the complexities of memory, trauma, and reconciliation.
