Description
In Forgetting the Holocaust, Ron Charach reflects on his life as a Jew raised in post-Holocaust Canada. Charach’s poems look back on a life of accomplishment and reflect, sometimes with broad comedy, sometimes with great confessional power, on what it means, coming from such a beginning, to be a good Jew, a good son, a good man.
