Cold crematorium wer. angielska - József Debreczeni - książka
Producent: Vintage
This remarkable work, an eyewitness testimony of the Holocaust, has finally been translated into English, seven decades after its original publication. Described as 'a literary diamond' and comparable to the works of Primo Levi by The Times, it has also been hailed as 'a masterpiece' by the New Statesman. The New York Times has selected it as one of the top 10 books of 2024. For years, this significant piece of Holocaust literature went unrecognized. Its author, József Debreczeni, was a journalist and poet who found himself in Auschwitz in 1944. Surviving the initial selection process, he spent a harrowing twelve months enduring the brutal conditions of various camps. His journey ultimately led him to the "Cold Crematorium," the grim nickname for the so-called hospital at the Dörnhau forced labor camp. Here, those too feeble to work were left to perish. Defying all odds, Debreczeni survived, and his story is captured in hauntingly lyrical prose that urges readers to confront the unfathomable. Originally published in Hungarian in 1950, the book then slipped into obscurity for seventy years. Now, this crucial firsthand account finds its rightful place among the monumental works of Holocaust literature. The edition includes an introduction by Jonathan Freedland.
