This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen by Tadeusz Borowski
This book is a collection of short stories based on the author's experiences as a prisoner in Auschwitz during the Holocaust. Each story provides a harrowing, yet matter-of-fact, account of life in the concentration camp, from the brutal work details to the constant threat of death. The author's stark and unflinching portrayal of the horrors of Auschwitz serves as a powerful testament to the human capacity for survival and resilience in the face of unimaginable cruelty.
