Sinossi
Una storia di resilienza e coraggio, un classico moderno da cui è stato tratto il film-capolavoro di Steven Spielberg. La straordinaria vicenda di Oskar Schindler, il giovane industriale tedesco che salvò la vita di migliaia di ebrei durante la persecuzione nazista. Amante del lusso e delle belle donne, considerato da molti un collaborazionista, Schindler riuscì a sottrarre uomini, donne e bambini allo sterminio, impiegandoli nella sua fabbrica come personale necessario allo sforzo bellico. Un'operazione rischiosa, con la quale mise in pericolo la propria vita. Commovente e indimenticabile, una pietra miliare della narrativa sull'Olocausto.

I read this book some time ago and I also watched the movie. I am not ashamed to say that this book and the film made me cry. Such a terrible time in our history when so much suffering was caused to so many. Thank God for people such as this who risked there own lives to save others.
"The list is an absolute good. The list is life. All around its cramped margins lies the gulf." The story behind the book which brought the story of Oskar Schindler to the world is almost as interesting as the story of Schindler himself. In October 1980, Thomas Keneally - already an established a
