The book explores the significant impact of Russian Jewish immigration to Israel following the Soviet Union's collapse, highlighting that Russian speakers now make up one-sixth of the country's population. It examines the broader implications of such rapid immigration on cultural identity in a multicultural world, where individuals navigate multiple languages and identities. The work delves into the challenges scholars face in understanding cultural identity, emphasizing that while adaptation is possible, deep-rooted identities often remain distinct across generations.
