| Summary: | Introduction: On the other side -- Esau or Laban? Wrestling with the German and Soviet occupations -- If a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him: the Soviet embrace -- Jewish luck: deportation to Siberia -- City of want: survival in Central Asia -- Nusekh Poyln or yetsies Poyln? the Polish way or exodus from Poland? -- Conclusion: Expanding the compass of survival. "Survival on the Margins tells the story of Polish Jewish flight into Soviet Ukraine and Belarus, deportation to the Urals and Siberia, amnesty to Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and subsequent repatriation to Poland after the war. It looks at what it meant for Central European shoe-makers and home-makers to encounter the overwhelming social and environmental diversity of the USSR in the midst of a punishing war as well as what their experiences can teach us about WWII and the Holocaust"-- |
