Editorial Reviews:
Synopsis:

Cole show us an "Auschwitz-land" where tourists have become the "ultimate ruberneckers" passing by and gazing at someone else's tragedy. He shows us a US Holocaust Museum that provides visitors with a "virtual Holocaust" experience. He shows us that, from movies to museums, the "feel good" Holocaust is being made in America. And, above all, he shows us that as the century closes the frightening reality of the Holocaust is being forgotten.


Review:

"A thoughtful and brave study of how the Holocaust has become an overly central myth and too commercialized for its own effectiveness."

Kirkus, 08/01/1999
