Abstract
- Joanna Sliwa's book, "Jewish Childhood in Kraków: A Microhistory of the Holocaust," offers a detailed examination of the experiences of Jewish children under the age of fourteen in Kraków during the Second World War. Sliwa focuses on the daily lives of these children, exploring their survival strategies and the challenges they faced during the occupation. The book highlights the agency and resilience of the children, as well as the support they received from both Jewish and non-Jewish individuals. Sliwa uses personal accounts and oral histories to provide a nuanced and compassionate portrayal of the children's experiences. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of children and families during the Holocaust. [Extracted from the article]
