Reading The Holocaust

Provides the reader with an extraordinary account and analysis of all areas of this chilling period of history: from the witnesses and survivors of death camps such as Prmio Levi and Charlotte Delbo, the motivations of the "desk-murderers" and the psychology of the murderers in the police battalions and the SS in the camps.

With the profound moral concern of the best general reader, one of our finest historians brings the Holocaust close up and stares the Medusa down. Inga Clendinnen claims for history the same power as poetry or fiction to enter the silences and make them speak.

Reading The Holocaust offers a unique perspective, delving deeply into its complex history with the intent to illuminate and understand.
