The paper offers a study of Jewishness in America based on two short stories written by preeminent Jewish writers Philip Roth and Saul Bellow respectively. By pointing out the confusions and paradoxes existing in the Jewish identity in America, it drives at the conclusion that Jewish identity and the memory of the Holocaust past will never be written off by the inexorable passage of time.
