Beschreibung
A gripping and famous novel adaptation of the fate of Oskar Schindler – a ruthless careerist, a war profiteer, a lover of elegance, luxury, alcohol, and beautiful women, who found his humanity in the shadow of the Auschwitz chimneys and risked not only his wealth but also his own life to prevent the extermination of a thousand 'his Jews.' The novel vividly depicts the development and clashes of individualities – victims, passive participants, and proactive executors – involved in the enormous bureaucratic machinery of evil. Steven Spielberg used motifs from the novel to create the famous film of the same name.
