The fact that the book manages to do justice to political and social differentiation both within the Jewish population and those who surrounded them is mainly achieved through relying on an impressive collection of primary sources. These are memoirs, interviews, oral histories and, crucially, a large collection of Polish and Yiddish-language poems, newspaper articles, and witness testimonies that were written during or right after the war. At that point those events were still fresh in the memory of those who recalled them, not yet affected by the growing discussion over their status as Holocaust survivors. Katarzyna Person in: H-Soz-Kult, 21.11.2019, www.hsozkult.de/publicationreview/id/reb-28698 Eine erkenntnisreiche wie bewegende Dissertation geht dem anhand von Selbstzeugnissen alles Art nach. Ellen Presser in: Judische Gemeinde aktuell. Zeitschrift der Israelitichen Kultusgemeinde Munchen & Oberbayern (04-07.2020), S. 89 Nesselrodt schliesst nicht nur eine Forschungslucke, sondern er tut dies auf eine besonders eindringliche Weise, weil er seine Studie als eine Erfahrungsgeschichte versteht (S. 2 f.), in der die Betroffenen zu Wort kommen, die aber auch eine Mittlerrolle zwischen Mikro- und Makrogeschichte ubernimmt. Juliane Wetzel in: ZFG 68.3 (2020), 275-277 Dieser Band analysiert erstmals die judische-polnische Perspektive auf Flucht und Evakuierung in das sowjetische Landesinnere und zeichnet sich neben seinem hohen wissenschaftlichen Niveau durch die Auswertung von unterschiedlichen Arten von Quellen in verschiedenen Sprachen aus, wo die Primarquellen immer im Mittelpunkt stehen.
