The book is about gay men's experience in the Holocaust. When it comes to gay survivors, a lot of their experiences and history were silenced due to stigma and homophobia. Because of this, there is a whole element of the Holocaust that remains under-studied. Reading about Heger's experience taught me a lot about the everyday life in the concentration camps and what had to be done for survival. It was a difficult and emotional read, but I'm glad I got to read his story and learn about this part of history.
