Fragments: Transcribing the Holocaust

by Swansea University

'Fragments: Transcribing the Holocaust' is a new book by Swansea University researcher Professor Frances Rapport, which details the life stories of three female survivors of the Holocaust and how they came to live and settle in Wales post-war.

The 100-page paperback book, published by Hafan Books, is the culmination of seven years’ work and details the extraordinary life stories of Anka Bergman, who passed away aged 96 in July 2013, Terry Farago, aged 86, and Edith Salter, who passed away aged 91 in 2011.

The three women were interned in concentration camps including Auschwitz-Birkenau.

The book was launched at the Senedd, National Assembly for Wales, on Wednesday, October 16, at an event hosted by Julie Morgan, Assembly Member for Cardiff North.
