Sommario/riassunto: | This text is a powerful view of this catastrophe that is candid and disturbing, and yet hopeful in its belief that the testimony of witnesses - in diaries, journals, memoirs, and on videotape - and the unflinching imagination of literary artists can still offer us access to one of the darkest episodes in the 20th century. |
