An excellent Autobiography,
By "jacobpemberton" (Milwaukee, WI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Varieties of Fear: Growing Up Jewish Under Nazism and Communism (Paperback)
Peter Kenez was my Russian History professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz. His lectures were always balanced and informative, and were greatly enhanced by his dry wit. Throughout the class he gave small hints of his life before coming to the United States, but never spelled out precisely the details. So it was with great enthusiasm that I read this book, which allowed me to learn the background of a man that I had already come to know. The best aspect of this book is that Professor Kenez's personality shines through - reading it is like listening to the man speak, but without the Hungarian accent. Highly recommended to anyone with an interest in modern European history.
