An excellent analysis of assimilated groups of Polish Jews who were
forced to live together in the Warsaw ghetto from 1940-1943 with
all other types of Jews.-- "New York Journal of Books"

our understanding of the complexity of the social reality of Warsaw
ghetto life and death.-- "Jewish Book World"
Prewar Poland witnessed the secularization of thousands, including
Jews who assimilated, intermarried, or converted to Christianity,
as well as those of Jewish descent. In 1940 all were lumped
together under Nazi racial laws and forced into the Warsaw Ghetto.
Based on diaries, memoirs, and interviews, the author describes the
tragedy of those adrift in two worlds.-- "Association of Jewish
Libraries Reviews"
