Author: TIVADAR SOROS
Title: Maskerado
Description: Canongate, 2000. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 275. Written in Esperanto in the early 60's, this unique account of survival is told by a Budapest lawyer who secured fake Christian identities for himself, his wife and his two children following the invasion of the Germans in March 1944. In a narrative reminiscent of the great Primo Levi, Soros views his experiences with a beguiling humour, deep humanity and a wisdom that is humbling. Translated brilliantly by Humphrey Tonkin, this edition offers non-Esperanto readers the first chance to read this extraordinary and deeply affecting book. Maskerado is a unique testament of the Holocaust, a story as wise as it is compelling, of how one man managed not only to escape, but to retain his integrity, compassion, family unity and humour by 'dancing around death'. ISBN: 9781841950624. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
