Reviews

"You have done a real service by letting the ones who are now silent and most forgotten speak." — Albert Einstein


"This book is more moving than earlier descriptions of the death camps because it is vividly articulated, not by a sympathetic observer, but by one of the few who survived the horror." — San Francisco Chronicle


"It is a picture of utter hell." — Saturday Review of Literature
