12. Elizabeth Rosner - The S-Word

*To Note: ALONG THE SEAM was formerly named The Memory Generation. In this first season, you will hear Rachael use that title in the intro and outro.* --In this episode of Along The Seam, Rachael talks with author Elizabeth Rosner about her book Survivor Cafe: The Legacy of Trauma and the Labyrinth of Memory. Both of Elizabeth’s parents were Holocaust survivors and she has carried their stories from the day she was born.  Some stories she was told and others she learned through the silences that threaded their way through her childhood. She began writing about her family history from a young age through poetry and fiction and now explores the topics of inherited trauma and epigenetics through non fiction. Her books teach us that it is our sensitivities that will save us and highlights how we are all connected through very intrinsic human experiences. Rachael and Elizabeth recorded this conversation on October 10, 2022. Elizabeth was at her home in Berkeley, California and Rachael was in Portland, Maine. --Elizabeth in The Along The Seam Newsletter:• The Labyrinth of Memory• If you’d like more from Rachael Cerrotti: subscribe to the Along The Seam newsletter• Find all the episodes at: www.alongtheseam.com
