Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. No Jacket. 20 pages, unnumbered. 14 x 11 cm. Printed on very high quality paper.Yala Helen Korwin, a Holocaust survivor, was born on February 7, 1933 in Lvov, Poland and died May 30, 2014 in New York City. She was a poet, artist, author, essayist, librarian and teacher. She created over 400 paintings and sculptures, some of which are on display in the Holocaust Museum in Washington, D.C. Korwin was a precocious child artist who received spankings for scribbling on the walls of her parents' apartment. Her father, Salomon Nachmani Meisels, was a poet and editor. As a high school student, she excelled at writing imaginative stories for her Polish Language classes. But the outbreak of World War II brought drastic changes to her life. Having survived a labor camp in the heart of Germany, and having no place to return to, she let the winds carry her to France, where she lived as a refugee for ten years. The urge to write never left her, but after years away from her native country, the Polish tongue didn't seem like the right tool anymore. French, though greatly admired, remained a stranger. A breakthrough came after she emigrated to the United States in 1956 with her husband Paul Korwin and their two children, Danielle and Robert. In 1965 she enrolled at Queens College, where she majored in French Literature with a minor in Art. As a senior, she took an honors course in Creative Writing, and discovered the new trends in poetry. Glad that rhymes, quite scary for the foreign-born, were no longer essential, she handed in assignments written in free verse, and completed the course with an A-minus. She eventually earned her BA degree Magna Cum Laude, then a Masters degree Summa Cum Laude. She went on to author six books. Korwin's first published work was a library tool, the two-volume Index to Two-Dimensional Art Works in Books, published in 1981 by Scarecrow Press. Her first collection of poems, To Tell the Story: Poems of the Holocaust, was published in 1987 by the Holocaust Library. Her poetry has also been published in literary journals, anthologies, textbooks, and has been set to classical music. Korwin considered herself to be a more traditional poet and especially favored the sonnet, which, she said, allows the poet to say all one needs in just fourteen lines, without unnecessary verbosity. A poem she hoped to be remembered by, which appears immediately below, is "The Little Boy with His Hands Up." It has been included in the documentary film produced in Finland; discussed in an essay by M. Hirsch in Acts of Memory, published by Dartmouth College; used by Prof. R. Raskin of Denmark in his scholarly study of the famous photograph; and included in the curriculum unit created by the Westchester Holocaust Education Center. Rhina Espaillat in a letter to Michael R. Burch, the editor of The HyperTexts, said: "I want to tell you again what a joy it is to see Yala Korwin's work posted on your site, attracting the readers she deserves. Her poetry gives the lie to the remark by Paul Celan that she uses as an epigraph to one of her poems, about the impossibility of telling one's own truth in a language that is not one's first. Yala's work is so passionate and wise about her truth—the truth of her personal experience and that of her generation, that it would somehow make itself understood if she stammered it in Chinese! Thank you for giving a forum to those of us who try to defy Celan's observation by doing our "telling" our singing in the language of the Other.".…
