dear all,
"Nacht/Night" (only in German) by Edgar Hilsenrath belongs to the books you cannot forget. The book shakes. The book haunts its readers. The author does not hesitate to name the bestial camp life in all its facets. Horror turns day into night.
Hilsenrath was deported from Siret to Moghilev-Podolsk on 14 October 1941. He describes bluntly what the great dying and the unbelievable survival in this ghetto looked like.

Betreff: Re: [Cz-L] The Transnistia "Evacuations"
Is there a historical documentation of what daily life was like in Bershad, where people slept, where the mass graves were, what work they did, how they were treated, etc
It seems that most concentration camp reports and current discussions focus on Auschwitz, Birchenau, Mathsusen and a few others. Along with other camps, the history of Transistria should also be much more widely known in respect for our loved ones who lived there and those who survived. How can we do this?
Are there other documented books in addition to that which Ruth Gold wrote
