“It was a Paradise”
April 25, 2008
“It as a paradise” this was what I heard when I asked Lillo Naim about Tripoli ,yet as i researched i learned about changes in the political atmosphere that impacted negatively on the community. i learned of religous and government laws limiting Jewish behavior.
When I sat down and spoke to Lillo Naim and Ruggiero Parienti, I asked how was” this a a paradise”? They explained it was a small community. The air was clean. The beach was within walking distance. Everyone knew each other. Life was simpler.
An interesting perspective looking back from the complexity of his life in New York.
If you are part of the community at large please respond.. Was it a Paradise in retrospect?
