Summary:This book focuses on a previously undiscovered work by the famous Jewish social work pioneer Siddy Wronsky (1883–1947) from Berlin. In her novel 'Sand and Stars'; Wronsky describes the immigration of four young Jews from Nazi Germany to Palestine; and their educational work and mission in the new land. As the analysis shows; this book is deeply embedded in the translation of social work from Germany to Mandatory Palestine as a 'gendered profession' in the making. It also reveals Wronsky as an agent of the transnational transfer of feminist ideas in relation to nationality/national identity; and the aspect of feminist literary activism at the time in relation to social welfare and social ideas and theories.
