Bildband der Fotografin Rita Ostrovskaya (geb. 1953). - Text in englischer Sprache. - "The series entitled 'Jews in the Ukraine' began with Shargorod, a city I knew about, having heard many stories from my friends, but did not actually visit and photograph until August 1989. Because - like so many people ion this country - I could not imagine that so-called 'shtetls' still existed in the Ukraine, the things I saw moved me deeply. I talked with people and took a great many pictures. I felt as if I had known them for a long time, we got along so well. Over a period of four years I returned to Shargorod again and again and saw the houses of emigrant Jews slowly emptying" (Rita Ostrovsjaya; Klappentext). - Provenienz: Bibliothek des Pädagogen und Bibliophilen Jürgen Engel (1933-2023; kleines typographisches Nachlassexlibris auf dem vorderen Spiegel). - Der Schutzumschlag minimal angerändert; gutes Exemplar.
