This moving and profoundly truthful story is told in the form of a diary, Kept by Angelika, the sister-in-law and frienf of Klara, who, after her release from Auschwiz, wandered through war-ravaged Europe for two months before returning to Paris in August 1945. Gradually, over a period of six weeks, Klara reveals, with cold anger and pitiless lucidity, the full horror of what she experienced in Auschwiz as she struggles to readpt to normal life. Not since Sophie's Choice has a novelist succeeded in conveying - with truth, dignity, power and intelligence - the inumanity of the death camps and the scars suffered by those who survived them. 180 pp.
