520 $aThe essays in the volume provide a multifaceted portrait of the lives of Yiddish-speaking eastern Jews in Berlin between the wars. Estraikh and Krutikov have arranged the articles in roughly chronological order. The book begins with an introduction giving historical background that sets the tone for the paradox of the lives of these emigrés in Berlin. The authors focus on individual intellectuals, poets and journalists who were among the many who fled to Berlin following the rise of the Soviet Union. They were often ignored by the Haskalah influenced, secular German Jews and lived in a poor section of the city. Several essays extol the many Yiddish presses and the temporary blossoming of literary achievement. One of the great strengths of this collection is that the community is shown in its diversity. There are those who are moving into mainstream German society or preparing to move on to France or America. There are politically active people who have little religious identification and there are radical Zionists. It is impossible to read these fascinating glimpses into Yiddish life in Berlin without a sense of dread, knowing the future. The studies here presented add an important component to the understanding of the Weimar Republic.
