Description
Cold Crematorium: A haunting eyewitness account of the Holocaust, now translated into English for the first time. József Debreczeni, a journalist and poet, survived the unimaginable after being sent to Auschwitz in 1944. His story, written in lyrical prose, is a powerful testament to the human spirit.
Debreczeni's account of his time in the 'Cold Crematorium', a hospital for prisoners too weak to work, is a harrowing and deeply personal exploration of the Holocaust. Published in Hungarian in 1950, the book was lost for 70 years before being rediscovered and translated into English. With an introduction by Jonathan Freedland, this important work of Holocaust literature takes its place alongside other key accounts of the period.
