Sharing borders with six countries and spanning a geography that extends from Pakistan to Myanmar, India is the world's largest democracy and second most populous country. It is also the site of the world's biggest crisis of statelessness, as it strips citizenship from hundreds of thousands of its people - especially those living in disputed border regions.

Gripping
Revisado: 12-22-24
The detail in this book is remarkable. I had never truly stopped to consider this issue previously and I can humbly say that this gripping and harrowing book opened my eyes. This is essential for anyone who cares.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 53
In 1929, the Soviet government set aside a sparsely populated area in the Soviet Far East for settlement by Jews. The place was called Birobidzhan. The idea of an autonomous Jewish region was championed by Jewish Communists, Yiddishists, and intellectuals, who envisioned a haven of post-oppression Jewish culture. By the mid-1930s tens of thousands of Soviet Jews, as well as about a thousand Jews from abroad, had moved there.

Such an important story

I love Masha’s writings. But her account of individuals plight to just survive and keep some form of hope, and their language, is both inspiring and heart wrenching. I am just blown away at how much I didn’t know. I highly recommend for everyone. This is history that is not taught and it should be.
