The story behind 520 lecturers and 2,430 lectures in KZ Theresienstadt 1942—1944
(560 pages, 320 illustrations)
Second Edition, corrected and expanded with the aid of feedback from survivors.
This volume describes the absurd world of the "Jewish Settlement" which was in fact the concentration transit camp Theresienstadt (1941—1945), from where people were sent to their deaths in the extermination camps.
It provides an insight into the daily life of prisoners, trying, as they did, to keep up a dialogue about life and living through an extraordinary network of lectures, poetry readings, concerts, story-telling sessions and theatrical performances.
Extracts and illustrations are drawn from original documents with additional commentaries from survivors, their relatives and other witnesses.
