In San Isidro, Lima, the only Jewish school in Peru stands on a street widely known as “Los Manzanos” (“The Apple Trees”) but whose name changes to “Maimonides” (the Jewish sage) depending on which sign you look at. As she takes us on a stroll through this six-block street and its different names, Dr. Romina Yalonetzky introduces readers to a physical microcosm of the intersection between Peruvian and Jewish identity, elucidated through the varied voices and experiences of Peruvian Jews. This book sheds a novel light on both Jewish and Peruvian identities.
Romina Yalonetzky has a Ph.D in Sociology from Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú and a Master’s degree in Humanities from The Hebrew University in Jerusalem. She is the author of articles and book chapters on Jewish Lima. She currently teaches at Universidad del Pacifico, in Lima.
