Description
Book SynopsisExamines the experiences of thousands of Jewish Argentines who built their life trajectories through migrations to and from Israel. Based on archival documents in English, Spanish, and Hebrew, as well as on interviews, Adrian Krupnik’s study gives voice to Argentine migrants to and from Israel.
Trade ReviewThe little-known case studies of the journals La Luz and Aurora, of Argentine and Israeli cartoons, as well as the case study of moshav Kochav Sobel, are some of the best parts of the book, illuminating microhistories, which allow us to see the general narrative in a close-up. Krupnik manages to uncover how individual actors benefited from the migration-influenced developments that began to shape their lives." - Mariusz Kałczewiak, author of
