Summary:
""The Next Generation" tells the story of a unique group: the American-born granddaughters of early 20th century Jewish immigrants to the United States who were also children of Holocaust survivors, and particularly those who later moved to Israel. Through an examination of her own life and experiences, the author presents it as a case study of this group, and sheds light on how the combination of being both the "next generation" and the "Second Generation" - children of Holocaust survivors - and moving to Israel, affected their lives"-- Provided by publisher.
