The story belongs to what I call 'Shoah business'. I loathed it - the film, I mean. Never went on to read the book. The whole thing seemed so dishonest.
If anyone wants to read a book on the subject, for goodness sake, read Primo Levi or Imr? Kertesz. At least they wrote about what they knew - and both are/were fine writers to boot.
