Description
A renowned historian tells of his youth as an assimilated, antireligious Jew in Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1939--"the story", he says, "of a poisoning and how I dealt with it". With customary eloquence and analytic acumen, Gay describes his family, the life they led, and explores his own ambivalent feelings--then and now--toward Germany and the Germans. 50 illustrations.
