The Periodic Table»rank: 8920par: Primo Levi
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Writer Primo Levi (1919-1987), an ltalian Jew, did not come to the wide attention of the English-reading audience until the last years of his life. A survivor of the Holocaust and imprisonment in Auschwitz, Levi is considered to be one of the century's most compelling voices, and The Periodic Table is his most famous book. Springboarding from his training as a chemist, Levi uses the elements as metaphors to create a cycle of linked, somewhat autobiographical tales, including stories of the Piedmontese Jewish community he came from, and of ... |

Survival In Auschwitz»rank: 18759par: Primo Levi
Chroniques et points de vue:From :Survival in Auschwitz is a mostly straightforward narrative, beginning with Primo Levi's deportation from Turin, ltaly, to the concentration camp Auschwitz in Poland in 1943. Levi, then a 25-year-old chemist, spent 10 months in the camp. Even Levi's most graphic descriptions of the horrors he witnessed and endured there are marked by a restraint and wit that not only gives readers access to his experience, but confronts them with it in stark ethical and emotional terms: '[A]t dawn the barbed wire was full of children's washing hung out in ... |

The Drowned and the Saved»rank: 68804par: Primo Levi
Chroniques et points de vue:From :This book, published months after ltalian writer Primo Levi's suicide in 1987, is a small but powerful look at Auschwitz, the hell where Levi was imprisoned during World War ll. The book was his third on the subject, following Survival in Auschwitz (1947) and The Reawakening (1963). Removed from the experience by time and age, Levi chose to serve more as an observer of the camp than the passionate young man of his previous work. He writes of 'useless violence' inflicted by the guards on prisoners and then concludes ... |

Si c'est un homme»rank: 107380par: PRIMO LEVI
Chroniques et points de vue:Chronique amazon.fr:Ce livre est sans conteste l'un des témoignages les plus bouleversants sur l'expérience indicible des camps d'extermination. Primo Levi y décrit la folie meurtrière du nazisme qui culmine dans la négation de l'appartenance des juifs à l'humanité. Le passage où l'auteur décrit le regard de ce dignitaire nazi qui lui parle sans le voir, comme s'il était transparent et n'existait pas en tant qu'homme, figure parmi les pages qui font le mieux comprendre que l'holocauste a d'abord été une négation de l'humain en l'autre. Si rien ne prédisposait l'ingénieur ... |
