Auschwitz: True Tales From a Grotesque Land

In this powerful memoir, Sara Nomberg-Przytyk recounts her harrowing two-year imprisonment in Auschwitz, describing how she emotionally detached herself to survive the horrors around her. Despite the cruelty, she captures moments of humanity, compassion, and moral complexity among prisoners. Her firsthand account includes a chilling and detailed portrait of Dr. Josef Mengele and his brutal medical experiments. Originally written in Polish, the manuscript was rediscovered decades later and brought to light after the author was found living in Canada.
