The “Crash” on Wall Street in 1929 and the subsequent great depression affected millions of people. Even those who did not lose their jobs, who had shelter and food on the table, were touched in many different ways by that unforgettable event.

It was a brilliant idea to explore the impact of the Holocaust from a psychoanalytic point of view.
