Remembering to Forget: Holocaust Memory Through the Camera's Eye
I read this book for a class. Like the other readers, if I had just picked it up to read, I wouldn't have finished it. The author spends a lot of time quoting other people and saying the same thing in one continuous loop. HOWEVER, this is the first Holocaust book I have EVER read that admits that the world put a lot of emphasis on the Holocaust, and none on many other atrocities around the same time and the ensuing 50 years. So very few scholars will admit this, and it drives me crazy. The thesis of the book was how the Holocaust coverage in image and text has actually caused the West to witness and forget future atrocities, as though images leave us feeling morally excused to move on, since we faithfully bore witness by looking. This was a refreshing, non-political viewpoint, although still an assertion that politics plays a significant role in collective memory.
