A review by terryansimon
Survival in Auschwitz by Primo Levi

5.0

let me start of by saying that this is one of the hardest books I have read in a while. it was difficult not in prose and complex structure, but more of the depth and weight of Primo Levi's writing. as he explores the depth and darkness of the human condition in his year at Auschwitz, it was a heavy and dense read on how a way of life was even remotely possible. while Frankl sort to explain how a person could sustain life in such conditions in his book A Man's Search for Meaning, Survival in Auschwitz was Levi's way of explaining what really went on behind the camps and how people did what it took to survive.
