Viac o knihe

The narrative explores the journey of Lithuanian Jews, particularly from Krottingen, as they establish a new Orthodox community in Sunderland, England. Despite facing poverty, language barriers, and the challenges of adapting to a foreign environment, they managed to maintain their religious practices while navigating secular life. The Sunderland Beth Hamedresh serves as a testament to their resilience, demonstrating that it is possible to blend total Jewish observance with secular success.
