About This Novel

This book contains Levi's lifelong poetry works, a total of 91 poems. In this book, Levi once again writes his testimony about the Holocaust in the form of poetry. Some people once said that "testimony" has no aesthetic significance, but Levi's poems break this stereotype. They are both profound testimonies and full of the beauty of literary art. "The Paris Review" commented on Levi's poetry: "His poetry defeats Theodor Adorno's declaration that 'writing poetry after Auschwitz is barbaric.'" The "Levy Works" series also includes "The Drowned and the Rescued", "The Trade of Others", "This Is Auschwitz: Evidence 1945-1986", "The Wrench", "Truce" and "If Not Now, When?" "Moments of Reprieve", "Voices of Memory: Interviews with Levi 1961-1987", "I Talking to You: Conversations between Levi and Tessio", etc.
