Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

In a book John Leonard calls "remarkable" and Michael Ignatieff describes as "invaluable," The Voice of Memory collects thirty-six interviews with bestselling author Primo Levi--many of them completely new to English-speaking readers. This book reveals a varied and complex picture of the acclaimed writer, encompassing Levi the Holocaust witness, the writer, the chemist, the mountain climber, the intellectual, the political polemicist, the atheist, and the Jew.

Hailed by David Denby as "one of the outstandingly beautiful and moving writers of our time," Levi emerges here in a rich, contradictory, and essentially human light. His status as perhaps the most important of the survivor-writers of the Holocaust is enhanced still further by his many voices speaking in this remarkable book.

Biografía del autor:

Primo Levi (1919-1987) was born and lived his entire life in Turin, Italy, with the exception of the years 1944-45, when he was captured as an anti-Fascist partisan, deported to Auschwitz, and then released into war-torn Europe. He was the author of such acclaimed books as Survival in Auschwitz, The Periodic Table, and The Drowned and the Saved. Marco Belpoliti is the author of L'occhio di Calvino. He is editing the complete works of Primo Levi and lives in Italy.
