The hour of revenge
June 17 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm SAST
Join us for a lecture by Katarzyna Person, one of Poland’s leading Holocaust historians and recipient of the 2024 Dan David Prize. Drawing on her acclaimed new book, The Hour of Revenge, Person explores the complex and often overlooked experiences of Holocaust survivors in the aftermath of the Second World War. Moving beyond narratives of victimhood, she examines how Polish Jews grappled with questions of revenge, justice, belonging, and reconstruction as they sought to rebuild their lives across a shattered Europe. This compelling talk offers fresh insights into the emotional and social aftermath of genocide and the challenges of rebuilding communities after catastrophe.
