This book is about Primo Levi and Ka-Tzetnik, both Auschwitz
survivors and central figures in the shaping of Holocaust memory,
who dedicated their lives to bearing witness and writing about the
concentration camps, seeking, in particular, to give voice to those
who did not return. The two writers are generally treated as
complete opposites: Levi level-headed and self-aware, Ka-Tzetnik
caught up in repeating the traumatic past. In this book I show how
fundamentally mistaken this approach is, and how the similarity
between them is, in fact, far greater than it may seem. While Levi
draws the map, Ka-Tzetnik reveals the territory itself, and, taken
together, they offer a better understanding of the human experience
of the camps. This book explores their writing and their lives up
to their deaths-Ka-Tzetnik of old age and Levi by his own
hand-offering new explanations of Levi's suicide, little understood
to this day.
