Auschwitz. Ero il numero 220543

Valutazione del libro

Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The almost unbelievable story of Denis Avey, now 92, began in 1944 when he was captured and sent to a POW work camp. He was put to work every day in a German factory, where he labored alongside Jewish prisoners from a nearby camp called Auschwitz. The stories they told him were horrifying. Eventually Avey's curiosity, kind-heartedness, derring-do, and perhaps foolhardiness drove him to suggest--and remarkably manage--switching places with two of the Jewish prisoners in order to spend a couple of harrowing days and nights inside. Miraculously, he lived to tell about it. Surely deserving of its place alongside the great World War II stories, this is an incredible tale of generosity, courage, and, for one Jewish prisoner whom Denis was able to help, survival. Amazingly, breathtakingly, it is told here for the first time.

Libro molto crudo che mostra la realtà e la sofferenza vissuta in quel terribile luogo. Merita di essere letto, PER NON DIMENTICARE e far sì che non si ripetano altri stermini nei confronti di NESSUNA popolazione.
