A gripping revisionist history that shows how ordinary Italians
played a central role in the genocide of Italian Jews during the
Second World War In this brief history of Italy's role in the
Holocaust, Simon Levis Sullam presents an unforgettable account of
how ordinary Italians actively participated in the deportation of
Italy's Jews between 1943 and 1945. While most historians have long
described Italians as relatively protective of Jews during this
time, The Italian Executioners tells a very different story,
recounting in vivid detail the shocking events of a period during
which Italians set in motion almost half the arrests that sent
their Jewish compatriots to Auschwitz. With a historian's rigor and
a novelist's gift for scene-setting, Levis Sullam dismantles the
seductive myth of the "good Italians" who sheltered Jews from harm.
In collaboration with the Nazis, and with different degrees of
involvement, the Italians were guilty of genocide.
