Wałęsa, ludzie, epoka Book

The author has a very matter-of-fact style, describing the facts around daily activities and life of his Jewish family before WWII. The memoir is heavy on Jewish tradition - describing the details of various religious ceremonies or holidays, and the family's preparations for and participation in those activities. Also, he details the day-to-day activities of the family, and how they as religious Jews interacted with their Polish neighbors.

I had hoped for a little more personal-ness in this memoir - I found it a little dry and too detailed at times, but all-in-all, it was interesting and provided me with new perspective and history.
