Levi, then a 25-year-old chemist, spent 10 months in Auschwitz before the camp was liberated by the Red Army. Of the 650 Italian Jews in his shipment, Levi was one of only twenty who left the camps alive. The average life expectancy of a new entrant was three months.
This truly amazing story offers a revealing glimpse into the realities of the Holocaust and its effects on our world.

"Survival in Auschwitz" is a stark prose poem on the deepest sufferings of man told without self-pity, but with a muted passion and intensity, an occasional cry of anguish, which makes it one of the most remarkable documents I have ever read.
Italo Calvino
One of the most important and gifted writers of our time.

"Survival in Auschwitz" has the inevitability of the true work of art.
