[Cz-L]RE: [Cz-L]Rose Ausländer reports on the Children's Holiday Colony in Vijenca (Wizenka) - August 1932‏

Dear Peter,

As always, you are indispensable concerning the accuracy of the data, that we are sharing. Vijenca (Wizenka [Ger], Vyzhenka [Ukr], Vizhenka [Rus], Vijnicioara [Rom]) is just 2 miles S of Vizhnitsa (Wiznitz), but it's important to distinguish the difference.

I enjoyed your wonderful page on Wizenka (http://bukowina.info/Wizenka.html) and I was able to find additional references, as for example "Ghosts of Home: The Afterlife of Czernowitz in Jewish Memory" (http://books.google.de/books?id=wXOY4i6gaDUC&pg=PA97&lpg=PA97&dq=Wizenka&source=bl&ots=oUAIQPlIwt&sig=CzPxR3Bk7A8Mto2XvxwKNSGRytA&hl=de&ei=YfJgTJ2jBtKROIvU2IwK&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CCcQ6AEwBDgK#v=onepage&q=Wizenka&f=false).

Thank you so much for your kind assistance. Best wishes from the Netherlands!
