The book explores the life of Theodore Hamerow, a historian born in Warsaw in 1920, who grew up in Poland and Germany amidst a vibrant Yiddish theater scene, thanks to his parents' involvement with the Vilna Company. It delves into the significant movement within the Eastern European Jewish community that aimed to establish a secular Jewish culture centered around the Yiddish language in the decades leading up to World War II. The narrative highlights the cultural and historical context of Jewish identity during this transformative period.
