In his new memoir, Who Lived, Who Died: My Family’s Struggle with Stalin and Hitler, Peter Gourevitch weaves years of archival research, family documents, personal stories, and the events of the twentieth-century into a moving reflection on the lives of his family members, their fateful decisions, and their own place in history. Join the Jews in Modern Europe seminar for a conversation with Gourevitch on tracing his family's story.
