"A remarkable achievement....The question of the Holocaust and its representation is important to our work in curriculum....Refusing to treat the Holocaust as metaphor, Marla Morris nevertheless uses the Holocaust to raise issues of memory and representation....She explores the issues from a variety of discipline perspectives--psychoanalysis, history, literature--and the breadth of her sources is wide....Morris deals with the issue perceptively and insightfully....Her material is provocative.....[Her] argument is forceful."

"The question of the Holocaust continues to loom large in contemporary intellectual work and across many disciplines....It has become, perhaps, the defining event of this time. Interestingly, within educational studies there are few works that seriously address the Holocaust and this book begins to fill that void....There can be little question of [Morris'] command and knowledge of relevant scholarship....I learned much about this subject from her writing....This book will appeal to those of us concerned with curriculum as this connects to questions of human transformation and social justice...those concerned with the significance of postmodern thinking on the teaching of history, and...those specifically interested in the teaching of the holocaust."
