Wir sind Juden aus Breslau

Prior to the Second World War, Breslau was home to the third-biggest Jewish community in Germany. The Nazi seizure of power meant persecution for these young Breslau Jews, some of whom managed to escape, very few of whom survived the concentration camps however. Fifteen contemporary witnesses provide insight into a generation in this work that, by drawing on oral testimony from individuals now based in countries as diverse as the USA, Great Britain, France and Israel, illustrates the dispersion that occurred amongst the Breslau Jews in the post-war period.
