Planet Auschwitz

Meer over het boek

Planet Auschwitz is comprised of fifty poems that explore events and atrocities of the Nazis during the holocaust of World War II. Each poem of five quatrains expands on a historical epigraph as a point of focus. While the poems individually serve as a snapshot of some aspect of the war, as a collection they document its evolution from early discrimination and persecution of "undesirables" to mass incarceration and obscure methods of extermination of those the Nazis identified as expendable.
