"This interdisciplinary volume offers methodologically innovative approaches to Austria's coping with issues of migration past and present. These essays show Austria's long history as a migration country. Austrians themselves have been on the move for the past 150 years to find new homes and build better lives. After World War II the economy improved and prosperity set in, so Austrians tended to stay at home. Austria's growing prosperity made the country attractive to potential immigrants. After the war, tens of thousands of "ethnic Germans" expelled from Eastern Europe settled in Austria. Starting in the 1950s "victims of the Cold War" (Hungarians, Czechs and Slovaks) began looking for political asylum in Austria. Since the 1960s Austria has been recruiting a growing number of "guest workers" from Turkey and Yugoslavia to make up for the labor missing in the industrial and service economies. Recently, refugees from the arc of crisis from Afghanistan to Syria to Somalia have braved perilous journeys to build new lives in a more peaceful and prosperous Europe."(Umschlagtext).

Book is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Straight unbroken spine. -- From the back cover: ""Each story" in Leonard Bernstein's wonderful new collection has "a little pain, a little joy, and often a little magic." The quotes perfectly describe the ingredients of these funny, witty stories that resonate in the tradition of Isaak Babel, I.B. Singer, and the Melville of 'Bartleby'. The most vivid ones are set in the NYC garment district -- "28th Street in the early 1950s" -- little parables, revelatory and smart oracular tales that show, as one example, how our debts carry over from ancestral Vilnius, say, to the 21st century in the new world. Saving face is still an imperative. Wit, intelligence, and shrewdness equal survival but only for the fittest, those negotiators who work all the angles, "from generations of pushcart peddlers who got up with the sun and struggled for every nickel." Read this book, laugh, cry, and become wise. [Hilda Raz, Editor Emerita, Prarie Schooner] / In these short stories, each as streamlined and efficient as a well-oiled sewing machine, experience tells. To be precise, Leonard S. Bernstein's experience of managing a company in Manhattan's garment center tells us a lot about what it's like to work under high pressure in the midst of all-too-human cravings for dignity, money, and status. And the stories have other settings, including Vilna and Brooklyn. Sholom Aleichem comes to mind constantly in reading these crisp tales of to- and-fro bargaining, of keeping up appearances, of hard-won compromises and reaching the point of no compromise. Each of these stories brings a charge of pleasure, for the felicity of idiomatic speech and ingenuity of structure, for the comic dialogue and the pathos that flows from the author's sympathy for his characters, for the attention to material objects and social codes. The office worker who commits himself to wearing "Navy Blue Forever," the minuet of courtship on company time, the outraged citizen who refuses to buy a tie with a corporate insignia -- these are finely textured portraits of the street-level life around us, miniature in scope but never in implication. You're being offered fourteen splendid stories between two covers. Treat yourself to a bargain! None of them will wear out. [Laurence Goldstein, Editor Emeritus, Michigan Quarterly Review]". …
