Bloomsbury presents Here Where We Live is Our Country by Molly Crabapple, read by Nina Yndis and Molly Crabapple

A vivid, human and radical history of one of the most powerful revolutionary movements of the twentieth century - told through the lives and in the voices of countless forgotten men and women

‘A gripping, human story of love, idealism and betrayal - and an immense, rigorous contribution to the historical record. Reading it feels revolutionary’ Naomi Klein

Here Where Live Is Our Country is the story of a revolutionary movement – the Jewish Bund – which played a part in nearly every major conflict in Eastern Europe from 1900-1945, but still remains an almost unknown part of twentieth-century history.

The movement’s central philosophy of “herenes” – the belief that Jews had a right to freedom and dignity in the countries where they lived – led them to fight the Tsar, reject Zionism, resist the Nazis, and ultimately help lead the Warsaw ghetto revolt. It is also a philosophy that immediately resonates with the political situation all over the world today.

In this book, Molly Crabapple tells the story of the Bund through the lives of the bold and brilliant individuals who were pivotal to carrying out the doctrine, including her own great-grandfather, through whom she first discovered the movement.


‘Crabapple, with this great work, adds to her growing legacy as a unique American genius’ Jason Stanley
‘Recounts, with a novelist’s mastery of detail, one of the most extraordinary rebellions of the human spirit in modern history’ Pankaj Mishra
‘A masterful storyteller who possesses an admirable sense of history and writes with verve and wit … Here Where We Live Is Our Country is a true tour de force’ Jon Lee Anderson©2023 Molly Crabapple Inc.

Reseñas de la crítica

Molly Crabapple is a time traveller, a necromancer and an unclassifiable genius. She beckons readers through a portal to an irresistible, lost world, one bound together by passion, solidarity, and a burning hunger for justice. Here Where We Live Is Our Country is that rarest of books: a gripping, human story of love, idealism and betrayal - and an immense, rigorous contribution to the historical record. Reading it feels revolutionary (NAOMI KLEIN)
In 380 lush, high-tempo, strikingly poignant pages ... Crabapple documents the Bund’s extraordinary rise and fall. The relevance of her material for our present moment is impossible to ignore
Crabapple’s terrific Here Where We Live is Our Country unearths the story of a Jewish political movement that opposed ethnic nationalism of all stripes ... thrillingly energetic, delightful, vivid
Vast in scope, elegiac in prose, this book brings to life the profound humanity of those who stood up to the blood soaked ethno-nationalisms that led to so many of the twentieth century’s storied horrors. All the while, Crabapple never lets us forget that they were also fighting for a world that would not give rise to such evil. This book is many things: an ode to the grand legacy of anti-Zionist Jewishness; a profound reflection on whether history has morals; and an essential resource for anti-fascist history, concepts and tools. Molly Crabapple, with this great work, adds to her growing legacy as a unique American genius (JASON STANLEY, author of How Fascism Works)
Molly Crabapple not only recounts, with a novelist’s mastery of detail, one of the most extraordinary rebellions of the human spirit in modern history. She animates, too, elegantly and boldly, a political and spiritual tradition that the zealots of ethnonationalism had managed to suppress for too long. In the long battles ahead for truth and dignity, her book will be an indispensable resource (PANKAJ MISHRA)
A remarkable book. With vivid scenes and lively characters, Molly Crabapple brings to life the marginalized and oftentimes forgotten history of the Bund. In pages that read like a novel, Crabapple immerses us in questions of identity, nationalism, internationalism, class, and intersectionality which undermined past revolutions and which continue to haunt our contemporary struggles. With the brilliance of a scholar and the creativity of an artist, Crabapple delves into personal and communal histories, intimately reconstructing the genealogy of a rebellion for dignity and justice, and in the process, gifting us nothing short of a roadmap for our revolution today (TAREQ BACONI)
Molly Crabapple’s words are as glorious as her colours, her writing as vivid as her painting ... A reminder that in even in the most dehumanizing of times a loving humanity might endure, even if only fleetingly (GREG GRANDIN)
