Description
A unique authentic testimony in which Czechoslovak Filip Müller revealed to the world what he saw and experienced as a member of the Jewish sonderkommando in the Auschwitz death factory. His book remains one of the most important sources of knowledge about the mass extermination in the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp. Filip Müller, born in 1922 in Sered nad Váhom, was deported to Auschwitz on April 13, 1942, where by May of the same year he was assigned to a group of Jewish prisoners who, isolated from the rest of the camp, had to participate in the strictly secret operation "Sonderbehandlung," that is, the mass extermination of Jews in the crematoria and gas chambers. Filip Müller, one of the few surviving eyewitnesses of the Auschwitz inferno, details what he experienced daily: the horrific experiences in the courtyards of the crematoria and in the changing rooms, from which mostly unsuspecting people were lured into the gas chambers, the horror scenes that took place there, as well as the dreadful sights from the incinerators and burning pits, the operation of which the SS men continually refined and for which the members of the sonderkommando were responsible. The unique testimony of a man who narrowly escaped death many times describes not only the mass killing of thousands of Greeks and hundreds of thousands...
