In praise (and defense) of Elie Wiesel, who spoke with ‘the aura of a prophet’

"an intimate sympathetic biography . . .an indispensable touchstone." Julia Klein, The Forward, May 23, 2023

“Berger's descriptions of the adaptations of these newcomers serve as inspiration for even the most cynical New Yorkers. . . a travel cornucopia to prompt stick-in-the-mud New Yorkers to explore outlying neighborhoods -- -New York Times Sunday Book Review, Nov. 4, 2007

“What a wonderful world exists in The World in a City, superbly described by a great writer, Joe Berger. . . The World in a City takes readers on a marvelous trip around the world without their ever having to leave New York.” -Edward I Koch, former mayor of New York City

“This powerful and sweetly melancholic memoir, brilliantly written by Joseph Berger, is a remarkable tribute not only to his parents but to an entire generation of Holocaust survivors who. . . succeeded in rebuilding their lives and dreams." -Elie Wiesel

"An absorbing, deeply moving memoir." -The NY Times
