I really enjoyed this book. Allow me to add the following: I am Assyrian. And I speak Neo-Aramaic. I understood all the Aramaic words used in this book. The book failed to mention that in North of Iraq, there are a lot of Assyrian villages who speak this language. And school in north of Iraq are teaching this language. I have family there. Also, many Assyrians in Skokie, Chicago, San Jose, San Diego, Detroit and many other cities around the world. We have many YouTube song now. The best recorded history. Just search Assyrian Songs on YouTube. Our churches are teaching this language. Maybe in it a dying language in America, but as long as we have Assyrians living in Iraq and Syrian, the language will be spoken. Also, Jewish people lived in Assyrian villages too in north of Iraq.Thank you for your work. Many Assyrian Christians related to what you said in this book.
(This review was made by a friend who received the book as a gift from me.) -- Ariel Sabar's remarkable story of his search for his family roots, My Father's Paradise, is well worth reading at this time in history. It is a memoir with the power to wake us up to honoring the unique journeys that individuals have made when they come to this country. There is so much richness in the cultural traditions that Sabar's father left behind when the forces of history swept him from his ancient village of Kurdish Jews. Who knew that their language was that of Jesus' Aramaic or that, until the 1950s, the Jews of Baghdad and Iraq were the largest diaspora in the Middle East? It seems that the Kurdish people really were able to create a paradise that Ariel's father could never forget.
Sabar's description of his father's history may appeal to only a restricted audience, but I found it fascinating. Sabar is an journalist and tells of his father's origins in a millennia-old Jewish community in Kurdistan, his immigration with his family at age 13 to Israel, their trials as new immigrants at the bottom of the social heap, and his eventual recruitment by a US university as a world-class expert linguist in his native language, Aramaic. But the book doesn't end there; the author is not only chronicler of his father's life; as an investigative reporter he senses a great story in an attempt to locate an older sister lost or kidnapped as an infant. The effort is in the end futile and the author is more interested in it than his father in the attempt.Sabar comes across as an honest reporter, even to the extent of sometimes presenting himself in a less than flattering light. I assume this is not unintentional which is a tribute to his honesty.
This is one of the great first persons accounts with the correct amount of mix of history, linguistics, and colorful reporting all melted into a great book for those interested in linguistics, history, or just simple family relationships. There is a lot of meat here in an easy-to-read complex history of a language and how it evolves and the people who spoke it. This is really a 6 Star book, but 5 stars is all I could give it. The reader will not have wasted his money.
I was so happy to have found this book. It was poignant and heartfelt and gave a personal and deeply moving dimension to a slice of history that I knew in more general terms. I was particularly ignorant of Jewish life and history in Kurdistan. It is important to remember all those communities of Jews and the individual and unique qualities of their communities. Their existence and stories add much to the dynamism and colorful history of the Jewish people. I was particularly taken by the story of Aramaic and the race to save the language in a time of homogenization of cultures and the loss of languages. Finally, I appreciated the coming of age nature of the author's journey as he learned to appreciate his father and his father's mission.
I had absolutely no knowledge of the Jews of Kurdistan and their history. This book gives a very real and personalized story of the Kurdish Jews through a story of the author' s father. As an immigrant myself, I could very well identify with Yona's trials and tribulations. I recommend this book to anyone interested in Jewish history, language origins and immigrant stories.
I loved this book! Actually, more and more as I progressed. I live in Israel and as such, I can relate to the hardships that befell the Kurdish immigrants from the 50's and trickled down to their children. The book was easy to read, gave a very good understanding of the past history in the area of Zahko and of course the recent history. I also grew up in Los Angeles and could identify with Ariel's "generation conflict". The study of language history can be daunting but it was covered so interestingly that it was easy to follow and understand. I highly recommend My Father's Paradise, and I intend to read it again!
I really enjoyed reading the autobiographical novel,"My Father's Paradise". It is most informative and enlightening to discover the way of life of these simple but devoted Jews who managed to continue their way of life by perseverance and observance for so many hundreds of years.Ariel Sabar has done intensive research and gone back to his father's isolated home of Zakho, to discover his roots.BUT, as a Jew myself, who has come to live in Israel, I am rather disappointed, that in spite of all the trials and tribulations that these special and determined Kurdish Jews overcame to return home to Israel, Ariel Sabar decided to go to live in the U.S., marry out of the faith, and not even bother to give his son a ritual circumcision. Does not the effort of his father and ancestors to remain Jewish count for anything??Nonetheless, an excellent book, which I rate four stars.
