A Chosen Few
The Resurrection of European Jewry

Fifty years after it was bombed to rubble, Berlin is once again a city in which Jews gather for the Passover Seder.

Delving into their intimate stories, Kurlansky weaves together a vivid tapestry of a tenacious people who have rebuilt their lives in the face of incomprehensible horror. A Chosen Few is a testament to cultural survival -- and a celebration of the deep bonds that endure between Jews and European civilization.
