In the final years of the Soviet Union and into the 1990s, Soviet Jews migrated at an unprecedented rate to Israel. Here, ex-Soviets tell their immigration experiences, allowing readers to explore this topic directly through immigrants' thoughts, memories, and feelings, rather than artifacts like magazines, films, or books.

This book is a follow-up to our project devoted to personal narratives of ex-Soviets in Israel. Our original plan was to collect previously published articles dealing with immigration issues but differing from the main themes of our book Ex-Soviets in Israel: From Personal Narratives to a Group Portrait (Fialkova & Yelenevskaya 2007). The themes of immigrants in the city, attitude to law, immigrants' literature and humor were touched upon but not developed in depth in that volume.They were researched in a number of papers written later (Fialkova &Yelenevskaya 2006, 2006a, 2011, 2012, Yelenevskaya & Fialkova 2006,2008) and discussed in our presentations at 11 scholarly conferences.However, when we re-read the articles we realized that the situation in the Russian-speaking community was so dynamic that studies conducted three-five years ago should be seriously revised and updated.
Jews, Soviet --- Cultural assimilation --- Israel --- Ethnic relations.
