As cultural study, the narrative draws upon the oral stories of the author’s father, family letters, eyewitness accounts, immigration papers, et cetera, and cultural research. The narrative becomes a transformative space to re-present story as performance, a meta-narrative, and an auto-ethnography for the author to reflect upon the effects of the stories on her own life, as daughter of a survivor, and as teacher/scholar. Summerfield raises questions about immigration, survival, resilience, place and identity, how story functions as antidote to trauma, a means of making sense of the world, and as resistance, the refusal to be silenced or erased, the insistence we know the past and remember those who came before. In 2011, she found her way back to the place her family came from in Ukraine. The book is now being read by students in their ESL classes in Novokoonstantinov, Ukraine.Transgressions (Rotterdam, Netherlands) ;Volume 126.JewsUkraineBiographyEthnohistoryFamiliesHistoryJewsEthnohistory.FamiliesHistory.306.85089924SUMMERFIELD JUDITH PEARL1033408NL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9911012678103321MAN COMES FROM SOMEPLACE4403785UNINA
