In this eloquent and glorious memoir, New York Times reporter Joseph Berger reflects upon his days growing up in Manhattan’s Upper West Side following World War II. Berger and his family, Polish Jews who survived the Holocaust, arrived in New York in 1950. Their fascinating story of adaptation in a strange, new world speaks universally of the trials millions of American immigrants have faced.

I alternate my listening between fiction and non-fiction. For non-fiction listening I enjoy memoirs and autobiographies and this is one of the best I have heard. I enjoyed this book because of the combination of personal stories mixed with history. You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy this book although I do think there will some extra resonance for Jewish listeners in this book.

Best type of memoir

Riveting & hilarious. So well written, you can "see" the people & the places of their lives in your mind & welcome them in to steal your heart!

I selected this title because I wanted to better understand the life of the refugee, the Syrian, the Latino, etc.of today. But through this story, Berger tenderly conveys and Guidall masterfully relates something unique to the Jew, a people for whom my heart freshly breaks. I am in awe of Berger's family tribe as it blooms from its holocaust-tortured seeds. Through his keen observations, capable journalistic skill, and obvious familial love, I was able to become for a bit a member of this family. He made it personal.

An unexpected treasure

Powerful story of a Jewish family before,during and emigrating after the holocaust. My father was a GI who liberated a concentration camp and as a result I always was aware of man’s inconceivable cruelty and inhumanity. I grew up in NYC with refugee children in my neighborhood and was aware of great silences about their history. This was a marvelous journey celebrating Jewish resilience.

Bearing witness

The truth, stood out the most. No wonder grandparents keep silent. My grandparents also suffered. They were Irish, fleeing starvation. Later, my grandfather"s grocery store was burned down. This in spite of his helping those suffering during the "Great War".

The survival of persons, families & faith in the cruelty of our United States, stood out the most.
