Ella Dor-On is the author of five books of poetry.
Her poems have appeared in many journals, textbooks
and literary anthologies.
She was born and brought up in Moscow, Russia,
and has lived in Israel since 1957. Ella Dor-On
holds a B.A. degree in English Literature and Eastern
Studies from the Tel-Aviv University, Israel.
The poems are recited on Holocaust Day at schools and during ceremonies
organized by youth delegations to Poland. The book can
serve as a helping tool to cope with the difficulties in teaching literary
texts about the Holocaust in Elementary, Junior-High and High
Schools.
