Synopsis

The Truth about Our American Births explores experiences of exile and displacement common to third-generation German Jews. As a child, author Judith Skillman was shielded from the past her parents shared with their fellow immigrants to Canada. The Holocaust was rarely mentioned. While these poems explore themes of exile, emigration, nostalgia, and loss, they also examine the role of nature as an organic force for healing.
