How the Soviet Jew Was Made

Discover the transformative exploration in How the Soviet Jew Was Made by Sasha Senderovich, published by Harvard University Press in 2022. This compelling hardback edition spans 368 pages and delves into the rich tapestry of post-1917 Russian and Yiddish literature, films, and reportage.

Senderovich introduces readers to a new cultural figure: the Soviet Jew. Freed from over a century of restrictions imposed by the tsars, Jewish authors began to craft characters that navigated both space and history. These characters embody the displaced practices and archetypes of a bygone era, offering a profound reflection on identity and cultural evolution.

Perfect for readers interested in literature, history, and cultural studies, this insightful work invites you to explore the complexities of Jewish identity in a rapidly changing world. Don’t miss your chance to engage with this significant contribution to understanding Soviet Jewry.
