Michael Uhl’s Biography of Betty Rosenfeld – Culture

Michael Uhl has written a breathtaking story of the fight against fascism disguised as a biography. What you thought you knew for a long time, you understand anew.

I suspect it wasn’t on purpose – or maybe it was? One way or another, Michael Uhl spelled out the singular elements of the Holocaust and its interweaving with other persecutions historically for all of us, as if they existed no theoretical trench warfare and no bitter debates on the subject. He does this using the example of “a biography” that in reality spans a family and friendship panorama across half the globe.
