<p>Pillow-Stones is a collage of poems that reconstructs memories of a distant and not-so-distant past occupied by the poet's German-Jewish heritage and her deeply-held feelings about loss woman-hood and her rebellion against religion. Each poem expresses an awakening and an intensification of what it means to survive and to thrive in the shadows of a world where today many people are unaware of the Holocaust and Germany's Nazi past.</p>
