The book explores the life of Theodore Hamerow, a historian born in Warsaw in 1920, who grew up in a culturally rich environment shaped by his parents' involvement in the renowned Yiddish theater, the Vilna Company. It delves into the significant movement within the Eastern European Jewish community aimed at fostering a secular Jewish culture through the Yiddish language in the decades leading up to World War II, highlighting the interplay between culture, identity, and historical context.
