In this study, C. Fred Alford offers a new and thoughtful examination of the experience of suffering. Moving from the Book of Job, an account of meaningful suffering in a God-drenched world, to the work of Primo Levi, who attempted to find meaning in the Holocaust through absolute clarity of insight, he concludes that neither strategy works well in today's world. More effective are the day-to-day coping practices of some survivors. Drawing on testimonies of survivors from the Fortunoff Video Archives, Alford also applies the work of Julia Kristeva and the psychoanalyst Donald Winnicot to his examination of a topic that has been and continues to be central to human experience. 606 $aSuffering$xReligious aspects$xJudaism 606 $aSuffering$xBiblical teaching 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) 606 $aHolocaust survivors$vInterviews 615 0$aSuffering$xReligious aspects$xJudaism. 615 0$aSuffering$xBiblical teaching. 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) 615 0$aHolocaust survivors 676 $a296.3/1174 700 $aAlford$b C.
