Abstract
Mameloshen | Mothertongue is a poetry collection that asks how memory is preserved and who is responsible for keeping it safe. The poems grapple with the process of researching the Holocaust, language and translation, and one young poet who was killed. The reader is invited to consider their own complicity.
