"The first duty of Auschwitzers is to make clear just what a camp is… But let them not forget that the reader will unfailingly ask: But how did it happen that you survived? … Tell then, how you bought places in the hospital, easy posts…what you did in the barracks, unloading the transports, at the gypsy camp; tell about the daily life of the camp, about the hierarchy of fear, about the loneliness of every man. But write that you, you were the ones who did this. That a portion of the sad fame of Auschwitz belongs to you as well."
Twelve short stories inspired by Tadeusz Borowski's experiences in Auschwitz and Dachau from 1943 to 1945.
