| Description: |
"Gypsies" have lived among Europeans since the Middle Ages. Yet Roms seem exotic to Westerners, who often rely on fictional depictions for what they know, or think they know, about this much-misunderstood people. This book challenges stereotypes that have long been the unwelcome travel companions of this community in Europe and the New World. |
| Synopsis: |
Roms (Gypsies) have lived among Europeans since the Middle Ages and yet still seem exotic to Westerners. Yaron Matras challenges stereotypes that have long been the unwelcome travel companions of this community, and offers a perspective-changing account of who the Roms are, how they live today, and how they have survived in Europe and America. |
