In the decade after the Second World War, 35,000 Jewish survivors of Nazi persecution and their dependants arrived in Canada. This was a watershed moment in Canadian Jewish history. Goldberg reveals the challenges in responding to, and recovering from, genocide from the perspective of "new Canadians" themselves.
