Passing Illusions by Kerry Wallach

Being visible as a Jew in Weimar Germany often involved appearing simultaneously non-Jewish and Jewish. Passing Illusions examines the constructs of German-Jewish visibility during the Weimar Republic and explores the controversial aspects of this identity - and the complex reasons many decided to conceal or reveal themselves as Jewish.
