Description
In these stories, J. J. Steinfeld explores the way in which the modern mind is both haunted and helped by the past. Steeped in post-Holocaust sensibility, Steinfeld’s writing demonstrates that history’s impact is as much psychological as it is physical, as he explores the many facets of survival.
