2.0 out of 5 stars
A pre WWII peek into a Balkan family,
By Eve Aries (Stamford, CT USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Sephardi Life in Southeastern Europe (A Samuel and Althea Stroum Book) (Paperback)
This book, while perhaps not of general interest, was fascinating to me, since my husband was born in Sofia, Bulgaria and was a distant relative of the author. The blindness of the participants to the events swirling around them in Europe was startling. Their concerns with business and success overrode any concern with the outside world. Marriage between cousins, uncles and nieces, was common emphasizing the clannishness of the Jewish population. This world ended with the commencement of WW II. The book definitely has a limited audience.
