The Holocaust has been the subject of several notable literary hoaxes by authors who either falsely claim to have lived through it , or were in fact Holocaust survivors but falsified their experiences . Such hoaxes include '' The Painted Bird '' ( 1965 ) by Jerzy Kosinski , '' Fragments : Memories of a Wartime Childhood '' ( 1995 ) by Binjamin Wilkomirski , '' Misha : A Mémoire of the Holocaust Years '' ( 1997 ) by Misha Defonseca and '' Angel at the Fence '' by Herman Rosenblat ( which was planned to be published in 2009 , but publication was cancelled )
