“Alba’s book is an outstanding contribution to the discussion of what can and ought to follow the imminent arrival of the post-participant stage in Holocaust memorialization.” (Arthur Shostak, The European Legacy, Vol. 22 (5), March, 2017)
"Meticulous international research, thoughtfully nuanced interpretation, lucid and penetrating writing these qualities distinguish Avril Alba's groundbreaking comparative study of major Holocaust museums in Australia, Israel, and the United States. A rising star in Holocaust studies, Alba probes and tests the meanings that these 'sacred secular spaces' ascribe to the Shoah. The results are as poignant and gripping as they are significant and challenging." - John K. Roth, Edward J. Sexton Professor Emeritus of Philosophy, Claremont McKenna College, USAAuthors and Affiliations
