What is Stranger at home : "the Holocaust," Zionism, and American Judaism about?

In this collection of related essays Jacob Neusner reflects on the experience of American Jews. He argues that the generative myth of death and rebirth by which American Jews make sense of themselves is shaped by the defining moments of the Holocaust and the creation of the State of Israel. A final section of essays considers the symbolic meaning of Zionism for the Jewish community, apart from the State of Israel.
