In 'Journey Through a Small Planet' Emanuel Litvinoff recalls his working-class Jewish childhood in the East End of London. With vivid intensity, Litvinoff describes the overcrowded tenements of Brick Lane and Whitechapel, the smell of pickled herring and onion bread, the rattle of sewing machines and chatter in Yiddish.
