Reading this book makes me grateful for everything I have. I read most of Levi's books. This man was one great writer! Thank you Primo.

This is the third book of Levi that I have read. His insight and first hand experience in this nightmare is set forth in prose that cannot be matched. He can "turn a phrase" as no one else.

The monster is in us all and necessitates eternal vigilance....
