I've read a lot in my life. During my teens I read books and books and books. Thousand of books. I borrowed books from my grandfather, I took a lot of books from the library and I have bought many many books.
Then I stopped to read and I have not read in some time, but lately (this last year) I came back to read again. In some of thoses years I was reading a lot I chose this book in a library.
This topic of nazism, holocaust and II World War is been one of my favourites ever. And this book atracted my attention because it is the experience of a man in a concentration camp.
There are a lot of books about experiences in concentration camps, but among them this is one of the basic. Apart from describing the life there with detail he also includes his thought about the meaning of life, why some survived and others don`t and why so cruelty.
Maybe the best book to introduce yourself in this kind of literature.
I liked a lot. I've read it several times and I consider it one of the best books about the theme. It is intense is quite descriptive and moving.
Highly recommended. With factfulness is one of the books I have recommended the most.
If this is a man. By Primo Levi
