For a great insight into the Jewish community in Buenos Aires, check out Nathan Englander's "cover" story over at Nextbook - "This Country of Mothers". A related podcast can be found here. Englander is the author of "The Ministry of Special Cases" which deals with both Argentina's Dirty War and the dark legacy of Jewish whores and pimps who plied their trade as newly arrived immigrants a generation earlier.

Another book that is receiving quite a bit of attention is "The Yiddish Policemen's Union" by Michael Chabon - a "what if" story about a post-World War II enclave created in Alaska for two million displaced Jews.
