Description
A collection of essays on Poland and reflections on the world of Polish-Jewry, including the consequences of the Holocaust.The author, a prominent figure in Polish-Jewish relations, has acted as a 'bridge-builder' between the two cultures over the last half century. These essays reflect on his relationship with his mother country. Regret for the loss of the multi-faceted world of Polish Jewry and reflections on why the history of the 'world's two saddest nations' diverged so drastically and led to so much misunderstanding, bitterness and hatred are the two themes of this volume.
