Dieser ungewöhnliche Roman wurde von mir geschrieben, dem Sohn eines Holocaust-Überlebenden, und basiert auf den Prüfungen und den Anfechtungen, die meiner Familie im Ersten und Zweiten Weltkrieg ausgesetzt war.
The aim of this book is not only to show the historical Auschwitz but the Auschwitz that has taken root in human beings: first, the inability to distinguish between good and evil; second, the obsession for reaffirming one's own identity as uniquely human and third, the impossibility of thinking about otherness.
L'obiettivo di questo libro non è mostrare soltanto l'Auschwitz storico, ma piuttosto l'Auschwitz che si è radicato nell'essere umano: la non capacità di distinguere il bene dal male; l'offuscamento per riaffermare la propria identità come la sola umana e l'impossibilità di pensare l'alterità, in modo tale che tutto questo ancora oggi persiste come eredità, della quale il nostro mondo è tanto esecutore testamentario quanto erede.
Ziel dieses Buches ist es, nicht nur das historische Auschwitz zu zeigen, sondern das Auschwitz, das im Menschen Wurzeln geschlagen hat: die Unfähigkeit, Gut und Böse zu unterscheiden; die Besessenheit, die eigene Identität als einzigartig menschlich zu bekräftigen und die Unmöglichkeit, das Anderssein zu denken, so dass dies bis heute als Vermächtnis fortbesteht, dessen Vollstrecker und Erbe unsere Welt ist.
O objetivo deste livro não é mostrar apenas o Auschwitz histórico, mas o Auschwitz que se enraizou no ser humano: a incapacidade de distinguir entre o bem e o mal; a teimosia em reafirmar a própria identidade como unicamente humana e a impossibilidade de pensar a alteridade, de tal forma que, ainda hoje, persiste como um legado, do qual nosso mundo é executor e herdeiro.
Tämän kirjan tarkoituksena ei ole näyttää vain historiallinen Auschwitz, mutta Auschwitz, joka on juurtunut ihmisen ei-kyky erottaa hyvä ja paha; pakkomielle vahvistaa henkilön identiteettiä kuin vain ihmisen ja mahdottomuus ajatella, toiseuden, siten, että, vaikka tänään, tätä jatkuu, kuten perinnön, josta meidän maailmamme on sekä toimeenpanijana ja perillinen.
