Selma Meerbaum-Eisinger

    February 5, 1924 – December 16, 1942

    Born in Bukovina, Selma Meerbaum-Eisinger emerged as a poet and translator whose German-language works are marked by potent imagery and poignant lyricism. Her verses often explore themes of love, loss, and the ephemeral nature of life. During the Nazi occupation, she penned poems that were later discovered and compiled in an album titled "Blütenlese." Her premature death in a labor camp left a tragically unfulfilled potential, yet her writing endures as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit against unimaginable suffering.

    "Du, weißt du, wie ein Rabe schreit?"
    Ich bin der Regen
    Ich gehe mit der Nacht vereint
    Blütenlese
    Ich bin in Sehnsucht eingehüllt. Gedichte
