Borders and Belonging: A Memoir

Mehr zum Buch

The memoir explores Mira Sucharov's quest for political and emotional belonging, shaped by childhood phobias linked to her parents' divorce and her experiences at a Jewish summer camp. A transformative three-year stay in Israel in her twenties challenges her deeply, prompting her to grapple with her identity and the complexities of writing, advocating, and teaching about the Israel/Palestine conflict. Through her relationships with colleagues, students, and friends, she seeks a balance between personal affirmation and authentic representation.
