In Beyond Imagination, 21 of Canada's most eminent writers of Jewish decent try in their various ways to make sense - if sense can be made - of the Holocaust. Together they bear witness to the most catastrophic and profoundly troubling event of our century, in essays, memoirs, short stories, and poems. With the assistance of the publisher, the contributors to this volume are donating their royalties to help establish a Chair in Jewish Studies at the University of Toronto.
