If you are a Lithuanian or a Jew, after reading this book you have no other choice but to redefine your personal identity in order to answer the questions: What does it mean to be a Lithuanian? What does it mean to be a Lithuanian Jew? I thought I knew the answers, but I was wrong.Levas Kovarskis, psychoanalystAs Lithuanians, we need to face the deep and painful reflections of the events highlighted in this remarkable book. A great deal of work is needed on both sides to restore trust between Jews and Lithuanians and, for those not afraid to do so, reading this book is a very good first step.Danius Puras, psychiatristDespite the multitude of available works on the Holocaust, this admirably concise, yet detailed, volume will be an eye-opener for many - probably most - of its readers. Particularly valuable is its comparative (not contrastive) survey of the behavior of many in Lithuania and The Netherlands during and after the Second World War. In no sense is this book 'anti-Lithuanian', for, as the author well realizes, it was not only the Jews in that country who suffered terribly under Nazi and Soviet occupation. This monograph deserves a very wide readership, especially in Lithuania.Martin Dewhirst, University of Glasgow, Scotland.--$cProvided by Publisher. 410 0$aOn the boundary of two worlds ;$v31. 606 $aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)$zLithuania 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) 676 $a940.531809224793 700 $aVoren$b Robert van$0864980 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456695303321 996 $aUndigested past$91930544 997 $aUNINA
