DYMY NAD BIRKENAU
SMOKES ON THE BIRKENAU
1st edition
Spoldzielnia Wydawnicza Czytelnik"1945, pp. 302, format 15x21 cm
One of the most important testimonies of the fate of prisoners and victims of the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp, and at the same time one of the first literary accounts of hell on earth.
"Blood has fallen on the walls, floors, bricks here and tells about the people who died here. They stayed where their blood was shed. It's nothing that the walls were whitewashed later with lime. These walls are still red."
Seweryna Szmaglewska, after being arrested by the Gestapo, spent two and a half years in the Auschwitz-Birkenau camp, where she experienced exhausting physical work and several serious illnesses. When in January 1945 the prisoners of the camp were chased in a death march, she managed to escape. From the first days of freedom, she began to describe the unimaginable. This is how the first document about the Nazi extermination machine was produced within a few months. The book was published before the end of 1945.
