Reviews
On Jun 4 2011, GraySutherland said:
A masterpiece. In it Primo Levi distills the entire horrific experience into episodes of transcendent literary beauty. Perhaps the one book from the Shoah that gives the lie to Adorno's death sentence: after the camps poetry is not longer possible. No, poetry remains possible.Thank you.
