The girl from Human Street : ghosts of memory in a Jewish family
Cohen, Roger2015
Books, Manuscripts
Turning an eye on the legacy of his family, New York Times columnist Roger Cohen explores the anomie of European Jews after the Holocaust, following them from Lithuania to South Africa, England, the United States and Israel. He illuminates the uneasy resonance of the racism his family witnessed living in apartheid-era South Africa and explores the pervasive Jewish sense of 'otherness' and how it relates to his family's own history of manic depression.
