Turning the Kaleidoscope

Turning the Kaleidoscope

Author: Lustig
Publishing date: 2006
Far from being a blank space on the Jewish map, or a void in the Jewish cultural world, post-Shoah Europe is a place where Jewry has continued to develop, even though it is facing different challenges and opportunities than elsewhere.

Some contributions highlight experiences of Jews in Britain, Sweden, Norway, Hungary, Austria,
