Articles liés à An Immigrant's Song: on becoming myself
Synopsis
Growing up Jewish in the Soviet Union, a girl affectionately called Ellochka dreamed of escaping a world of conformity, censorship, and carefully guarded family secrets. In 1977, as a young woman, she finally did—leaving her country and her family behind to begin a new life in America.
Freedom changed the course of her life, but it could not erase the landscape of memory. Decades later, looking back at the family she left behind, the Soviet world that shaped her, and the choices that carried her across an ocean, she discovered that becoming free and becoming oneself are not quite the same thing.
An Immigrant’s Song is a deeply personal memoir about growing up Jewish in the Soviet Union, immigration to America, family, identity, and the complicated inheritance of the past. Moving between pre-revolutionary Russia, the Soviet Union, and the immigrant experience in the United States, the book follows one woman’s journey as she seeks to understand where she came from and how the past continued to shape her choices, relationships, and sense of self.

À propos de l'auteur
Eleanora Ioffe grew up in Crimea and emigrated to the United States in 1977. An Immigrant's Song is her first memoir, reflecting on identity, memory, and the long path to self-understanding. She lives in Phoenix, Arizona, and enjoys dance, theatre, yoga, exploring the world, and learning to fly a plane. Whatever pursuit may occupy her at a given moment, she remains endlessly curious about the meaning of life.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. How do we become who we are, what shapes our identities? Does changing the physical landscape of our lives break the chains that tie us to our past?I grew up under a political system that did not allow citizens to think independently or speak freely. Inside my family, uncomfortable subjects and emotions were avoided. For years I yearned to break away, to leave behind the world based on conformity and lies, and to escape the stifling environment of my family's life. Both wishes became reality when I left my country of birth and my family of origin to come to the United States-to live on my own, to live free. Yet I discovered over the years that the world I had left behind had not entirely left me.This memoir began as an attempt to preserve my family's history, but in the process became much more. A return to the landscapes of memory-both tender and difficult-revealed a deeper meaning to early experiences, and with it, an understanding that not everything needs to be resolved in order to accept the past.An Immigrant's Song is a story of memory, identity, and the long journey toward becoming oneself-across borders, across time, and across the invisible lines that shape our lives.
