Meer over het boek

The book provides a thorough examination of the Holocaust in Romania, focusing on the complex dynamics of support and betrayal during this dark period. Utilizing exclusive access to secret archives, Radu Ioanid analyzes a range of materials, including survivor memoirs and government reports, to reveal the Romanian government's role in anti-Semitism and the extermination of Jews under Ion Antonescu's regime. The narrative highlights both the cruelty of perpetrators and the survival strategies that allowed some Romanian Jews to endure the war, amidst a growing denial of these historical events.
