Description

Boris Pahor spent fourteen months as a prisoner and medic in Nazi camps during World War II. His experiences in these camps are vividly recalled when he visits a preserved historical monument twenty years later. The images of his time in the camps come flooding back: corpses being carried to ovens, emaciated prisoners struggling up quarry steps or standing at roll call in the cold rain. Pahor's account is a powerful exploration of his attempts to provide medical aid amidst unimaginable brutality and his struggle to come to terms with the guilt he feels for surviving when millions did not. This book is a personal and historical account of one man's experiences during World War II, shedding light on the atrocities committed in Nazi camps.
