Hotel Bolivia

by Leo Spitzer

"As much a reminiscence as a scholarly work, Spitzer examines his childhood, born of German Jewish refugees in Bolivia. Tells how his parents came to Bolivia and describes their life in the new country. Emphasizes memory and the place of dispossessed German Jews in a foreign country, with Bolivian context in 1940s taking a back seat"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
