Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This is the definitive report on Fragments, Binjamin Wilkomirski's invented "memoir" of a childhood spent in concentration camps, which created international turmoil. In 1995 Fragments, a memoir by a Swiss musician named Binjamin Wilkomirski, was published in Germany. Hailed by critics, who compared it with the masterpieces of Primo Levi and Anne Frank, the book received major prizes and was translated into nine languages. The English-language edition was published by Schocken in 1996. In Fragments, Wilkomirski described in heart-wrenching detail how as a small child he survived internment in Majdanek and Birkenau and was eventually smuggled into Switzerland at the war's end. But three years after the book was first published, articles began to appear that questioned its authenticity and the author's claim that he was a Holocaust survivor. Stefan Maechler, a Swiss historian and expert on anti-Semitism and Switzerland's treatment of refugees during and after World War II, was commissioned on behalf of the publishers of Fragments to conduct a full investigation into Wilkomirski's life. Maechler was given unrestricted access to hundreds of government and personal documents, interviewed eyewitnesses and family members in seven countries, and discovered facts that completely refute Wilkomirski's book. The Maechler report has implications far beyond the tragic story of one individual's deluded life. It explores our feelings about survivor literature and the impact these works can have on our remembrance of the Holocaust.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In 1996, Wilkomirskis Fragments was published in the UK by Picador. In it he described how as a small child he survived internment in the camps of Majdanek and Birkenau, and eventually was smuggled to Switzerland at the end of the war. The book was hailed by critics, awarded major prizes, compared with the masterpieces of Primo Levi and translated into nine languages. The charge that these childhood memories were untrue gave rise to the furious controversy that became the Wilkomirski affair. Stefan Maechler, a Swiss historian, has now finally reconstructed the poignant life of Bruno Grosjean and traced how he became Binjamin Wilkomirski. In the course of his in-depth investigations, he uncovered facts that completely refute Wilkomirskis story. This affair has implications far beyond the tragic story of one individuals deluded life. Maechler explores the reception of survivor and eyewitness literature and its implications for our remembrance of the Holocaust. This edition includes the entire text of Fragments. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. …
