reviewed Memoirs of a Grandmother: Scenes from the Cultural History of the Jews of Russia in the Nine... on July 17, 2016 Memoirs of a Grandmother: Scenes from the Cultural History of the Jews of Russia in the Nine...
Charming and fascinating account of living within The Pale in mid 1800s. Pauline Wengeroff writes (wrote -- translated by Shulamit Magnus) in a natural very readable, personable way, at the same time conveying the details and realities of Jewish well-to-do, pious life. Long scholarly essay at the start about issues and society of the period, and copious notes at the end. Extremely, deeply researched. However, you can simply read the memoir without knowing more; Wengeroff brings past life to life.
