Description

This is a deeply moving personal testimony of a woman with a mixed ethnic and religious background, who grew up as an outcast dissident thinker under an authoritarian regime and took the risk of a dangerous illegal escape, together with her little son. After confronting rejection by a conservative Israeli society and xenophobia in reunified Germany, the author settled in the U.S. and has been exploring questions of identity in the experience of immigrants and contemplating the continuous struggles of people striving for a better life and the refugee and migrant crises in the world.

Dr. Judith Wermuth-Atkinson is an author, a literary scholar, and a translator living in New York, USA.
