With more than 3,000 poems, the German-Jewish poet bears witness to how deeply life and literary expression can merge. Rose Ausländer (1901–1988) grows up in the quadrilingual Bukovina, lives in New York, becomes an American citizen, returns to Galicia, is arrested by the Soviet secret police, is later confined by the Nazis in a ghetto, survives the Shoah, and travels again to New York, Vienna and Düsseldorf. Her poetry processes the experiences of exile and of the Shoah. For Rose Ausländer, writing is the way to her identity.
