COHEN, ANDREW D.
- Abstract
The author reflects on his visit to Ukraine, to try to find the village where his grandfather had grown up before emigrating to the U.S. in the 1930s. He recounts his effort to find the site of the Janowska World War II concentration camp near Lviv, Ukraine. Other topics include his memories of his grandparents in relation to his Jewish identity, the role of nostalgia in his journey, and his experiences talking with Ukrainians he met.
