Author Eva Hoffman Publisher Mariner Books; 1st Mariner Books Ed edition (January 1, 1998) Binding paperback Condition like new Summary Eva Hoffman’s “Shtetl: The Life and Death of a Small Town and the World of Polish Jews” is a profound exploration of the Jewish communities that once flourished in Eastern Europe. Through meticulous research and poignant storytelling, Hoffman reconstructs the history of a Polish Jewish shtetl, illuminating the culture, traditions, and eventual tragic annihilation of these communities during the Holocaust. This deeply moving account not only commemorates a lost world but also delves into the complexities of Jewish-Christian relations, memory, and historical narrative. A compelling read for those interested in Jewish history, World War II, and the impact of cultural memory.
