5.0 out of 5 stars enchanting child's-eye memoir of Russian Jewish life, April 17, 1998
By A Customer
With illustrations by her husband Marc, Bella Chagall's memoir comes from the poignant brush strokes of childhood, focusing on Jewish holidays and family life. If you are curious about the life your immigrant forebears left behind, this will satisfy. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Preliminary......, February 25, 2011
By 
Lise Nordbrřnd (9037 Tromsř, Norway) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Burning Lights (Paperback)
A preliminary review - I read this book years and years ago - and it has stuck with me. Such visual images - this little girls walking around in her fathers jewelreystore. Just got it, and just save it to be reread at a time when I am in a more 'reflexive mood'. Will then come back with comments - but I am almost afraid - I have changed, will I still be enticed????????

4.0 out of 5 stars Touching, April 3, 2001
This review is from: Burning Lights: A Unique Double Portrait of Russia (Paperback)
This book was penetrating and witty, giving a portrait of pre-war Vitebsk that makes the reader feel transported back to that time and location. Sweet without being cloying, the memoir bursts from the pages as if Bella were in front of you, holding a conversation with you.
