More about the book

Focusing on the diverse experiences of Jewish communities, the book explores the anthropological insights of Moshe Shokeid through three distinct journeys. It examines Moroccan Jews adapting to life in Israel, Israeli émigrés in America, and American gay Jews maintaining their cultural heritage within New York's vibrant Jewish landscape. Shokeid's ethnographic work reveals the complexities of social life and identity, culminating in a reflection on his research methods and personal involvement as a participant observer among these unique groups.
