"(now Lviv in Ukraine)" is a somewhat innocuous addition to this article, but is really superfluous as the Wikilink for "Lemberg" (already in place before this edit) defaults to Lviv via "diambiguation." And that, I believe really provides the necessary update to city's political status for purposes of this article on The Lemberg Mosaic.
So in effect the edit is it is like identifying Lviv (L'viv) twice in the same sentence. That is "perhaps" a matter of form, but as for the issue of substance, this book only touches on Lviv - as an iteration of the city's name - perhaps once in a footnote or as a postscript. Why? Anyone that reads the book will know... and from the perspective of the historical scope of the volume, 1910 - 1945, there was no Lviv, nor even an independent nation known as Ukraine. I left the edit intact, but as the article moves from stub to a deeper analysis of Jakob Weiss' book, I am sure that this issue will be resolved or in any event stimulate discussion which I think will lead to a better article on the book both by those with a deep knowledge on the subject and/or those who have read it.
