Qesher Book Club: The Jews of Lithuania — A Journey Through the Long Twentieth Century
Hosted By: Qesher
The Qesher Book Club explores a story of Jewish life in Lithuania in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, tracing how rising hardships led many to emigrate while others remained behind. Those who left brought Lithuanian Jewish traditions and learning with them, shaping new communities abroad. The book also examines the fate of those who stayed, the devastation of the Holocaust, and how postwar Lithuanian society has reckoned with its past.
