Wherever they have settled,
Jews have been useful to the
nation's leaders. "Ambitious
rulers have found in the Jews a
source of talent not tied to the
status quo, and given them pro-
tection and opportunity in ex-
change for their services as
administrators, financiers and
diplomats."
Yet this "embrace," Mr. Gins-
berg argues, has been fatal. Re-
peatedly, the Jewish influence
has proved to be only tempo-
rary.
But is this true of the United
States, he asks. Does America's
liberal tradition preclude the
possibility of mobilized anti-
Jewish hostility? How have op-
posing political forces here used
anti-Semitism, and how might
they use it in the future?
Mr. Ginsberg also is the au-
thor of The Captive Public and

Politics by Other Means.

Primo Levi
was, according
to the New Re-
public, "the
great memo-
rist of the
Holocaust...
and one of the
outstandingly beautiful and
moving writers of our time."
He also was a man of great
tragedy — a survivor who killed
himself by jumping out the win-
dow.
Now, two of Mr. Levi's most
memorable books, Survival in
Auschwitz and The Reawaken-
ing are out in paperback, from
Collier Books.
Survival in Auschwitz re-
counts Mr. Levi's 10 months in
the Nazi death camp. The new
edition includes a never-before-
published conversation between
Mr. Levi and author Philip
Roth.
Survival's sequel, The
Reawakening, tells of Mr. Levi's
liberation from Auschwitz in
1945 and his strange journey
home through the Soviet Union,
Hungary and Rumania.

"Mommy," the
little boy ask-
ed. "Are they
going to shoot
us?"
He never
heard the an-
swer, "because
so many people were crying."
So begins one story in Jane
Marks' The Hidden Children:

The Secret Survivors of the
Holocaust (Fawcett Columbine),
which contains 23 accounts of
Jewish children hidden during
World War II. They discuss
their ordeal of hiding, their res-
cuers and the guilt created by
the necessity of adopting new
and conflicting identities.
Ms. Marks began her re-
search on the hidden children
in 1991, when New York mag-

azine hired her to cover the
First Gathering of the Hidden
Children, which more than
1,600 persons attended.
"For the hidden children, that
weekend was a cathartic expe-
rience," Ms. Marks states. "For
the rest of the world it was an
education."
Ms. Marks is the author of
a monthly family therapy col-
umn in Parents magazine.
