This is the story of an international forced labour camp for women,
the largest of the auxiliary women's camps attached to KZ
Buchenwald in Germany. It was the place that the Jewish prisoners
sang the satiric camp anthem: Hasag is our father, the best father
there is / He promises us - long years of happiness / In Leipzig -
a paradise on earth. Was Hasag-Leipzig really a paradise compared
to other Nazi installations, in terms of the treatment of prisoners
and their living conditions? This study provides answers to this
question as it depicts the camp for 5500 from 18 countries, among
them 1200 Jewish prisoners brought there from Poland. Special
attention is paid here to the cultural activities. The author has
collected a large number of verses penned in the camp. They add a
refreshing new dimension to the scholarly work, bringing the reader
closer to the alien, unfamiliar world known as the Hasag-Leipzig
Women's Camp.
