- The book is based on a rare cache of over 4000 letters and documents, tracing the experiences of an extended German-Jewish family during and after the Holocaust. In addition to analysing this substantial body of original material, Gilbert draws on archival materials from Israel, Germany, South Africa and the US in order to explore wider issues including the reconstruction of transnational Jewish networks after the Holocaust, and Jews’ engagement with racism in apartheid South Africa. The book represents 8 years’ worth of sustained research work.
