Abstract
ABSTRACTThis article offers a critical analysis of British writer Angela Morgan Cutler’s and Jewish American author Paul Auster’s accounts of their encounters with the Nazi sites of mass murder Auschwitz-Birkenau and Bergen-Belsen. Having no personal connection to the history of the Holocaust, Cutler and Auster post-witness the past through experiencing contradictory sensorial and cognitive reactions to the memorial sites, which resemble cognitive dissonance.
