An award-winning historian presents an emotional history of Jewish refugees biding
their time in Portugal as they attempt to escape Nazi Europe. This riveting book describes
the experience of Jewish refugees as they fled Hitler to live in limbo in Portugal
until they could reach safer havens abroad. Drawing attention not only to the social
and physical upheavals of refugee life, Kaplan highlights their feelings as they fled
their homes and histories while begging strangers for kindness. An emotional history
of fleeing, this book probes how specific locations touched refugees' inner lives,
including the borders they nervously crossed or the overcrowded transatlantic ships
that signaled their liberation
