As she takes us on a stroll through this six-block street and its different names, Dr. Romina Yalonetzky introduces readers to a physical microcosm of the intersection between Peruvian and Jewish identity, elucidated through the varied voices and experiences of Peruvian Jews. This book presents a unique understanding of Jewish Peruvian-ness and in so doing sheds a novel light on both Jewish and Peruvian identities"-- Provided by publisher Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and index Notes Description based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on May 20, 2022) Subject Jews -- Peru -- Lima -- History -- 20th century Jews -- Peru -- Lima -- History -- 21st century Immigrants -- Peru -- Lima -- History -- 20th century Immigrants -- Peru -- Lima -- History -- 21st century Jews -- Peru -- Lima -- Identity National characteristics, Peruvian.
