Auschwitz e simili, holocaust haiku of Toni Piccini
$20.00
Description
Toni Piccini has written other books before, but none of them has called to him like this one. Auschwitz e simili is a deep imagining, based on visits to this stalag, as well as extensive reading and research, of the lives led by million of people consigned to the stalags, those who were targeted by the policies enforced by the Nazi regime in the 1940s in Germany and elsewhere. Avoiding easy sentimentality, this is a deeply moving book, rendered by imagination and confirmed by fact, and brought close to home by the recent regrowth of the Nazi ideology. You will not find a more topical book of haiku anywhere. In Italian, with translations into English (Jim Kacian), Hebrew (Zinovy Vayman) and German (Dietmar Tauchner). Annotated.
