Relation In Pursuance Of Books Cuptoarele lui Hitler

Olga Lengyel lived through seven months of hell in Auschwitz when she chose to accompany her husband into deportation in Germany from Poland where they lived. Their children and her parents went too, and all except Olga Lengyel were murdered by the Nazis. Her husband, Dr. Lengyel, had been accused of crimes of resistance, and it seems to be her perspective is a little different from most survivor accounts. She does say that Jews and Gypsies were chosen for the worst treatment and extermination, and that German criminal prisoners and homosexuals were often chosen for guarding and other prison jobs, which they performed with a free rein on brutality.

Holocaust literature isn't just history, and it isn't just about the Jews. It's about crimes against humanity, specifically the one we now call, 'ethnic cleansing'. Obviously methods vary between Burma, Bosnia, Cambodia, Rwanda, et al, but the mind-set is always the same: a set of people are considered ethnically inferior and it is promoted politically that the quality of life, economically and in life-style will be greatly improved once the land is ridden of these people by state-sponsored murder. Five Chimneys is Olga Lengyel's story of living through this period in the concentration camps of Germany.

The lessons we can learn from her book in particular and that period in general will always be relevant. Of the terrible inhumanity that results when enough people are swayed into believing and supporting the policies that lead to the destruction of millions of people because they are told it will benefit them personally. When their avarice overcomes any idea of reality they individually as well as militarily become willing to terrorise, betray and murder in pursuit of this 'better life' without any moral sense of the evil they are doing.

Only when we link each of these terrible acts of mass murder by the state and admit that the mindset is always the same, and not separate different events. When we admit that the Holocaust, the ethnic cleansing of the Balkans, Pol Pot's killing fields et al have the same root and do not differentiate them with different 'reasons' do we stand a chance of educating people into standing up for the truth and firmly, together, against any that would persuade them that mass murder would be the right course of action for them whatever the time or place might be.

Evaluation Appertaining To Books Cuptoarele lui Hitler

This is one of my keeper books. True story of a woman who ended up in Auschwitz and survived only thanks to her knowledge of the german language...I had to stop at times to process what I have just read as she doesn't hold back in the detailed description of what was going on in the terrible place.Very well written and a definitely 10/10 for me...

It defies belief 5*Everyone should be made to read this book. It's brutally disturbing but compelling also. It will stay with me for a long time

It feels wrong to give a poor rating to any memoir, especially when its a holocaust survivor, but this book is in desperate need of an editor. The story is hard... harrowing... but above all: historic. If you're a history buff or someone be who reads a lot on this subject, this is another account to read. If you're looking to read a historical account for the first time, you may want to consider the contenders if you have trouble with poor writing.

UPDATE 12-22-19 ... fascinating and horrifying to read ... one Nazi atrocity after another, brought down to the personal level of a single person and a single incident ... how can people become so horrible? what do people have to do to survive in such a world? ************This book, and In the Hell of Auschwitz, which I'm reading at the same time, are both stunning and horrific personal memoirs of what it was like to be at Auschwitz.

This is the first Auschwitz (well, Birkenau) survivor story I have come across which is a womans story. I have heard before, in passing perhaps, a sentence or two about how the conditions in the camp was even worse for the women than for the men. Not sure if such a comparison is meaningful, after all, the question who had it worse in Auschwitz is pretty absurd. But it does tell about some aspects of life that the male survivors whose stories I have read up until now simply didnt come into

I sat here for several minutes, not knowing where to begin writing this review. It's a serious book & deserves a serious review, but that's not my review or blogging style. I write like I talk - casual, chatty, and a little bit of babble. This book is about how one woman survived Hell - Auschwitz & Birkenau. I read history because history is more interesting then fiction half the time, and how does that old quote go? Something about learning about the past so you aren't doomed to repeat
