Now that American fiction has amassed an impressive and provocative Holocaust canon, the time is propitious for its evaluation. Witness Through the Imagination presents a critical reading of themes and stylistic strategies of major American Holocaust fiction to determine its capacity to render the prelude, progress, and aftermath of the Holocaust. The unifying critical approach is the textual explication of themes and literary method, occasional comparative references to international Holocaust literature, and a discussion of extra-literary Holocaust sources that have influenced the creative writers' treatment of the Holocaust universe. 606 $aAmerican fiction$xJewish authors$xHistory and criticism 610 $aThe Holocaust 615 0$aAmerican fiction$xJewish authors$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a813.54098924 700 $aKremer$b S.
