Clearly a very personal and haunting story. I had known of this book for a while and I'm glad to have finally read it. For a firsthand account of the horrors of the holocaust, I'd recommend this book but really review the content warnings first. Seeing his attitudes towards Palestine in the epilogue is more haunting.
