This, his memoir of Nazi-occupied Belgium, is both an elegy and an indictment. Liebman's account of his childhood in Brussels under the Nazi occupation explores the emergence of his class-consciousness against a background of resistance and collaboration. He documents the internal class war that has long been hidden from history: how the Nazi persecution exploited class distinctions within the Jewish community, and how certain Jewish notables collaborated in a systematic programme of denunciation and deportation against immigrant Jews who lacked the privileges of wealth and citizenship. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ci\u003eBorn Jewish\u003c\/i\u003e is a fierce, powerful and subtle account of the Liebman family's struggle to survive persecution and terror, a story rich with insight, humour and lyricism.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMarcel Liebman\u003c\/b\u003e (1929-1986), a Belgian historian, is the author of \u003ci\u003eLeninism Under Lenin\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Russian Revolution\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eJacqueline Rose\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor of English at Queen Mary University of London.
