基本説明
Gordon's descriptions of daily life and bureaucracy in the infamous Slobodka ghetto, and the mass executions in Auschwitz and Dachau are direct and unsentimental.
Full Description
" Holocaust survivor Harry Gordon recalls in brutal detail the anguished years of his youth, a youth spent struggling to survive in a Lithuanian concentration camp. A memoir about hope and resilience, The Shadow of Death describes the invasion of Kovno by the Red Army and the impact of Soviet occupation from the perspective of the ghetto's weakest and poorest class. It also serves as a reminder that the Germans were not alone responsible for the persecution and extermination of Jews.
