'We Started Over Again, We Were Young': Postwar Social Worlds of Child Holocaust Survivors in Montreal
|
| Abstract |
Thousands of child Holocaust survivors arrived in Montreal between 1947 and 1952, looking to remake their lives, rebuild their families, and recreate their communities. The authors point out that integration was not seamless. Survivors struggled to carve space for themselves within the established Jewish community which neither easily received nor understood these newcomers. While survivors recall the ways which Canadian Jews helped them adjust to their new settings, they also speak about how they forged their own paths upon arriving in postwar Montreal.
