Home after Fascism
Italian and German Jews after the Holocaust
Exploring the post-Holocaust experiences of Italian and German Jews, the book delves into their complex emotions about returning to their homelands. It examines how the distinct national contexts of East Germany, West Germany, and Italy influenced their sense of belonging. While many Italian Jews maintained a strong connection to their country, German Jews faced a painful reconciliation with their past. The narrative highlights their struggles against antisemitism, efforts to reclaim lost identities, and the longing for a sense of home amidst profound loss and change.
