Our America, Nuestra América, Unsere Amerika - by Claudio Lomnitz (Paperback)

The book "In Our America" is a groundbreaking exploration of Jewish and indigenous Latin American thought and culture, told through the lens of a family memoir.

This book delves into the intersecting lines of these two cultures and how they have shaped each other throughout history.

Through the author's grandparents' exile from Eastern Europe to South America, we gain insight into the worldview, culture, and spirit of countries such as Peru, Colombia, and Chile.

The book also explores the almost negligible attention and esteem that South America holds in US public opinion.

With a vivid and engaging writing style, Lomnitz creates an intellectual space that transcends the family memoir genre, making this book a must-read for anyone interested in Latin American history and culture.
