Descriere Auschwitz Report | Primo Levi, Leonardo De Benedetti

Dating from the weeks and months immediately after the war, Auschwitz Report details the authors harrowing deportation to Auschwitz, and how those who disembarked from the train were selected for work or extermination. As well as being a searing narrative of everyday life in the camp, and the organization and working of the gas chambers, it constitutes Levis first lucid attempts to come to terms with the raw horror of events that would drive him to create some of the greatest works of twentieth-century literature and testimony. Auschwitz Report is a major literary and historical discovery.
