Abstract: This article provides an analysis of the ways in which food has been thematized in the deportation narratives of Baltic women (primarily narratives of the 1941 mass deportations). Based on a posthumously published diary of an Estonian woman who died in her deportation location in 1945, the well-known deportation memoir of Lithuanian woman Dalia Grinkevičiūtė as well as a number of deportation stories of Baltic women collected and published in the early 1990s, the article focuses in particular on the following topics: food and identity, communal networks of care, different means of procuring food, and hunger.
