Book Synopsis



Haciendo de la literatura un ejercicio de memoria histórica, en La tierra donde volvimos a nacer Jaime Laventman narra una historia de exilio, supervivencia y redención, en una novela sobre la fuerza de las raíces, los lazos de sangre y las cicatrices que se heredan.

México, 1924. Desde las frías tierras de Europa oriental, donde ser judío se ha convertido en un estigma y sinónimo de persecución, dos jóvenes parejas atraviesan el gran océano para escapar del antisemitismo y de las guerras que están exterminando a su gente. Provenientes respectivamente de un pequeño pueblo ucraniano llamado Zhytomyr y de Cracovia, los matrimonios Yehuda-Natasha y Leah-Yakov llegan al puerto de Veracruz arrastrando tras de sí una gran estela de dolor, abusos y muerte.

En México hallan una riqueza que los sorprende, así como una comunidad que los recibe con los brazos abiertos, sin embargo, el peso del pasado es una carga difícil de sobrellevar y una retahíla de secretos y traiciones, que ocultan como cualquier familia, los perseguirá hasta el Nuevo Mundo.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Framing literature as an act of historical memory, The Land Where We Were Born Again by Jaime Laventman tells a story of exile, survival, and redemption--a novel about the strength of roots, family ties, and inherited scars.

Mexico, 1924. From the cold lands of Eastern Europe, where being Jewish has become a stigma and a synonym for persecution, two young couples cross the great ocean to escape antisemitism and the wars that are wiping out their people. Coming from the Ukrainian village of Zhytomyr and from Krakow, the couples Yehuda-Natasha and Leah-Yakov arrive at the port of Veracruz, carrying with them a long trail of pain, abuse, and loss.

In Mexico, they find a surprising richness, as well as a welcoming community--but the weight of their past is a heavy burden to bear, and a tangle of secrets and betrayals, hidden like any family's, will follow them into the New World.
