"Chez moi, on était juifs de père en fils. Enfant, je le fus donc à mon tour. Mais pour quoi faire ? À douze ans, je croisais le chemin d'un vieil homme au regard profond: Sauras-tu en faire autre chose qu'un mot?" C'est ainsi que tout a commencé. Depuis la guerre, ma famille entière demeurait tapie dans le silence. Je devrais tout apprendre par moi-même. Entre les bus de Vichy remplis d'israélites et ceux de Maurice Papou chargés de bougnoules, le monde m'apparut comme gelé de l'intérieur. À l'école, les gamins antisémites me faisaient honte, sans que je sache dire vraiment de quoi. 'Fous avaient décidé pour moi ce qu'était être juif: Auschwitz et Israël, en boucle jusqu'à l'épuisement. Était-ce seulement cela ?"--P. [4] of cover.

Between 1967 and 1991, almost half of the entire Jewish population of the Soviet Union left for freedom to Israel, America, and other western countries. "From Exodus to Freedom The History of the Soviet Jewry Movement" tells the story of the American Jewish community's involvement in this exodus, and is the first of its kind to explore how such a massive emigration occurred for a population virtually written-off by world Jewry as doomed just two decades before.
