Set in July 1940, this autobiographical novel recounts the harrowing experiences of Henry Raupner, a Polish-born Jewish doctor trapped in Italy due to racial laws. After being arrested, he is sent to Ferramonti Concentration Camp, the largest internment camp for Jews in Italy during WWII. The narrative vividly portrays the harsh realities of camp life, including extreme weather, disease, and hunger, while highlighting Ferramonti's role as a refuge for 3,000 Jews evading the Final Solution. The second edition features additional photos and updates.
