Beskrivelse
Nonfiction. Memoir. Literary Criticism. WINE FROM TWO GLASSES is a quasi-autobiographical meditation, a literary work, rather than a scholarly lecture, especially in this elaborated and revised printed version. Among other things, it tells the story behind the story of the author's cousin, who wrote a diary for a few weeks before committing suicide in Nazi-occupied West Ukraine in 1943. It explores the links between documentary and a rhetoric to think atrocity. The author engages with writers such as George Oppen and Vaclav Havel, Primo Levi and Paul Celan, and the filmmaker Claude Lanzmann, and examines private and public concerns in the post-Auschwitz and post-Hiroshima world.
