Abstract
Balint’s sensible attention to DPs’ intimacies and to “all the drama and the mystery of human relations” (p. 146) makes Destination Elsewhere a necessary read for historians of twentieth-century state-building, migration, refugees, gender, and family. Her close reading of personal histories will also be of interest to any social scientist who, “confronted with figures in the millions . . . wishes to understand individual experience” (p. 9).
