Helpful Score: 1

I've been reading books on the Holocaust for over 25 years, and this book stands out as among the most amazing - which is saying a lot because every book written by a survivor of concentration camps is amazing. What makes this book special is that he not only describes his life in memorable detail, but unlike any other book, he talks openly about an especially humiliating event. Also, the title is very meaningful. Every time I think of or see the book, I think back to the humiliating event, and the reason for the title. This is not a book for those newly interested in the Holocaust, but is a must read for those like me who are fascinated by the tenacity of those who survived.
