Description

This book comprises interviews with some of the last surviving veterans of the Jewish Fighting Organization in the Warsaw ghetto, accompanied by never previously published photographic "postcards" from a number of ghettoes, and a reconstruction of the only surviving contemporary list of those soldiers that strives to salvage vestiges of their stories from oblivion. The first part of the book, "Still Circling," is a collection of interviews with the last surviving soldiers of the Jewish Fighting Organization (ŻOB), which fought in the Warsaw ghetto uprising. The section opens with an interview recorded in 1985 with Marek Edelman, by then the only commander of the ŻOB still alive, and ends with another conversation with him recorded in 2000. The other interviewees included are also ŻOB veterans--rank-and-file soldiers, men and women. These veterans relate the stories of their homes and their backgrounds--some were Bundists, others from Zionist or religious families--followed by their recollections of how they experienced and remembered the uprising, which provides several unique perspectives of shared episodes. Images include portraits of Grupińska's interlocutors as well as never before published photographs of the ghetto and its surroundings that are reminiscent of postcards. The second part of the book, "Rereading the List," is intended to function like a litany of the names of the ŻOB members who fought in the Warsaw ghetto uprising. This "list" was compiled by fighters in 1943 and discovered by the author in 2000. Each name is accompanied by a short story about the fighter--sometimes only a sentence or two--as well as any available photograph of the soldier. The list is followed by a reconstruction of the ŻOB army, which captures its divisions and the places they fought.
