She describes their challenges in adjusting to new homelands, issues of identity and language, and the brilliant works produced under the discomforts and stresses of belonging nowhere. Speaking with the authority of first-hand experience, Borinsky relates the story of her own family?Eastern European Jews, with one-way tickets to Buenos Aires, refugees from the countries that?spat them out and massacred those who stayed on."
