As she grew older and raised a family, questions about her roots and her native land haunted her until, at last, she felt compelled to write about them.Tearing the Silence brings together her interviews with dozens of German-born Americans, and their confrontations with the taboo of the Holocaust.The Worst Thing I've Done, Sacred Time, Hotel of the Saints, The Vision of Emma Blau, Tearing the Silence, Salt Dancers, Stones from the River, Floating in My Mother's Palm, Unearned Pleasures and Other Tales, Intrusions, and Trudi & Pia are among Ursula Hegi's works. She is a writer who teaches at Stonybrook's Southampton Campus and has received over thirty grants and honors.
