Book excerpt: **Number 47 on Book Authority's 94 Best Nazi Germany Books of All Time!** Walter’s Welcome is the story of Walter Neisser and the more than fifty members of his family he helped to escape Nazi Germany. The story is told through the letters of the Neisser family, which have been meticulously translated and arranged by Walter’s niece, Eva, who also provides moving historical contextualization and commentary. After fleeing Germany, the Neissers resettled in Peru. However, their flight was neither easy nor seamless. Walter worked tirelessly to provide the resources and guidance necessary for the many members of the family to escape, but communications to Europe were frazzled and travel off the continent became increasingly impossible with each passing day, requiring extraordinary will and coordination to contact the correct officials and receive the necessary documentation. The family’s letters reveal the toll these efforts put on them and the challenges of waiting and surviving in a foreign land as they tried to hold together. The story of Jewish escapees to Latin America has only recently begun to be widely explored. This memoir-in-letters explores the difficulties of daily life in this little explored context, as the Neisser family and many other escaped Jews adjusted to a new home and tried to build a new life in the shadow of the many horrific things happening back in the land they’d left behind.

Book excerpt: Walter Stanley, a middle-aged, mildly obsessive and slightly above average American political science professor, thinks he may have made a mistake. Why did he choose Russia as the site for his sabbatical? He's tired of the drunken camaraderie; he finds the crowded buses a Hobbesian world writ small; and he frequently becomes irate stepping in dog feces in the halls of his apartment. Away from his wife and family, he meets Lientjies Steenkamp, a beautiful, young South African Communist, who he becomes infatuated with upon their first meeting. Can a slightly burned out, tenured college professor find happiness in a dreary society with a woman fifteen years his junior?
