Omschrijving

In modern-day Ukraine, east of the Carpathian Mountains, there is an invisible city. Known as Czernowitz, the ?Vienna of the East” under the Habsburg empire, this vibrant Jewish-German Eastern European culture vanished after World War II?yet an idealized version lives on, suspended in the memories of its dispersed people and passed down to their children like a precious and haunted heirloom. In this original blend of history and communal memoir, Marianne Hirsch and Leo Spitzer chronicle the city's survival in personal, familial, and cultural memory. They find evidence of a cosmopolitan culture of nostalgic lore?but also of oppression, shattered promises, and shadows of the Holocaust in Romania. Hirsch and Spitzer present the first historical account of Jewish Czernowitz in the English language and offer a profound analysis of memory's echo across generations.
