- Summary
- "Following in the tradition of The Five Scrolls, a prayer book for Jewish holidays, This book offers six reflective narratives on Jewish people about to confront their own destruction, juxtaposed against passages from Genesis on the six days of creation. The elegaic simplicity conveys a stark horror that will move readers either to prayer or to stunned silence. Liturgies by Albert Friedlander conclude this powerful commemoration of the Holocaust for an interfaith readership."--amazon.com.
