Kühn, Dieter. Despite terrible living conditions Kolmar continued her writing, including Susanna, which she wrote out of a sense of her own powerlessness. Kolmar published three collections of poetry during her lifetime, primarily detailing the experiences of women as mothers, childless women, lovers, mourners, travelers and the persecuted.

Kolmar was arrested by the SS on February 27, 1943 and deported on March 2, 1943 with the “eastern transport” to Auschwitz. Her impassioned lyrical writings are comprised of both carefully constructed rhymes and melodic free verse that transform everyday objects and situations into visionary and mystical images. Sprechende Bilder: Zur Lyrik und Poetik Gertrud Kolmars (Spoken images: The poetry and poetics of Gertrud Kolmar).

Her most poignant letters are those written between 1939 and 1943 to her sister and her niece Sabine in which Kolmar wrote of her suffering under antisemitism.
