Description: "More than half a century after the Holocaust, in countries where Jews make up just a tiny fraction of the population, products of Jewish culture (or what is perceived as Jewish culture) have become viable components of the popular public domain. But how can there be a visible and growing Jewish presence in Europe without the significant presence of Jews? Ruth Ellen Gruber explores this phenomenon, traveling through Germany, Poland, and Czech Republic, Austria, Italy, and elsewhere to observe firsthand the many facets of this remarkable trend."--BOOK JACKET.
