Bij ons in Auschwitz compact
Op 27 januari 1945 werd concentratie- en vernietigingskamp Auschwitz bevrijd. Daar zijn in vijf jaar tijd minstens 1,1 miljoen mensen mannen, vrouwen, kinderen, merendeels Joden. De meeste ooggetuigen van die moord zijn inmiddels overleden. Maar de geschiedenis van de Holocaust mag niet worden vergeten. Enkele ooggetuigenverslagen staan ons ter beschikking.
Arnon Grunberg koos de veelzeggendste verhalen uit Bij ons in Auschwitz, zijn bloemlezing van internationale kampliteratuur, en schreef er een inleiding bij. De lezer volgt de gedeporteerde van de aankomst in het kamp tot in de gaskamer, van de dwangarbeid tot de bevrijding, en er wordt inzicht geboden in de schaamte van hen die het was vergund te overleven.
