My Pentateuch

In the twentieth century, one generation experienced two or even three historical epochs. But seemingly as compensation for these upheavals, the witnesses and participants in events that changed the world and themselves have more opportunities to preserve the "departing nature." Natalia Neimark's book is one such precious testimony.  "My Pentateuch came together on its own, like a mosaic panel is created from small pebbles of memory," — writes Natalia Neimark, a lecturer at an engineering college in Israel, a former Muscovite. The panel turned out to be lively and expressive. The reader will find here not only the history of the author's family (with fates that are surprising yet typical), but also vivid snapshots-photographs from the lives of friends, acquaintances, and students in Moscow and Israel.
