Description
Farewell Leicester Square by Betty Miller is a thought-provoking novel that explores the complexities of anti-Semitism in 1930s England. Written in 1935, the book tells the story of Alec Berman, a Jewish man who struggles to find acceptance in a society that often discriminates against him. Despite his outward success as a film-maker and his marriage to an Englishwoman, Alec feels like an outsider, torn between his Jewish heritage and his desire to fit in. The novel is a powerful exploration of the ways in which prejudice can be both overt and subtle, and how it can affect individuals and communities. Published by Persephone Books, Farewell Leicester Square offers a nuanced and insightful look at this period in history, one that challenges readers to think critically about the nature of tolerance and acceptance.
