A Chosen Few: The Resurrection of European Jewry
What was it like to return home with most everyone you cared about murder and rebuild a life among the people who either cooperated with the killers or did nothing to stop them? Why did these Jews go back and how did they rebuild Jewish life. Starting at the close of World War II and continuing through the fall of the Soviet Union this is the story of families and communities in Paris, Antwerp, Amsterdam, East and West Berlin, Warsaw, Budapest, and Prague. The Washington Post wrote “In this valuable book, Kurlansky brings alive the missing years of European Jewry.”
