Hello, Refugees!

Více o knize

Germany, once the most racist country less than a century ago, has recently welcomed over one million refugees, more than any other European nation. To uncover the reasons behind this transformation, Tuvia Tenenbom, an Israeli Jew, posed as a Jordanian to gain access to various refugee camps. There, he witnessed the dire living conditions and the desperate pleas of refugees seeking to escape. Outside the camps, Tuvia interacted with locals who claimed that Germans were the kindest people in Europe, often expressing disdain for the Jews. His exploration of the refugee experience in contemporary Europe, juxtaposed with the rising anti-Semitism among those who profess kindness, reveals the hypocrisy underlying the "Refugees Welcome" sentiment prevalent in the West. Tenenbom's work is marked by a provocative re-enactment of reality, shedding light on the complexities of compassion and prejudice. Praise for his previous writings highlights their emotional depth, engaging style, and brutal honesty, showcasing his unique ability to blend politics, humor, and literary flair in a thought-provoking manner.
