What People Are Saying
Scott Ury
"Shternshis takes the reader far beyond the cold war politicalization and American Jewish and/or Israeli Jewish romanticization of "Soviet Jewry" as "the Jews of Silence," and deep into the personal accommodations and transformations of those individuals who saw themselves as being both Soviet and kosher."--(Scott Ury, Faculty of Humanities, Tel Aviv University)
