On 22 April 1962 what remains of Göran Rosenberg’s family board a train to Venice, the first step of their passage from his native Sweden to Israel. Transplanted into a nation only a few months older than him, he is first enchanted by its vitality, imprinted by its ideals. It marks the beginning of a lifetime's journey across the promised land and into its past, the utopian visions and desperate fears that went into Zionism, as well as the violence and dispossession of its realization. This book tells the story of that journery, though buried stories and erased villages, dreams and disillusionments, and the histories still unfurling today.
