Publisher's Synopsis
Each essay presents readers with the extraordinary production and consumption of culture by Polish Jews in literature, film, cabaret, theater, the visual arts, architecture, and music. They show how this process was defined by a reciprocal cultural exchange that flourished between cities at the periphery-from Lwów and Wilno to Kraków and Lódz-and international centers like Warsaw, thereby illuminating the place of Polish Jews within urban European cultures.
