1.Survival In AuschwitzSurvival In Auschwitz
from Touchstone
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
Primo Levi was an Italian Jew arrested for anti-Fascist resistance in 1944 and sent to the camps of Auschwitz. His short, vivid portrayal of the horrors of the Nazi camps there, the depravity of human nature and the extremes that the human psyche can endure, makes for a lasting literary... more info

2.The Drowned and the SavedThe Drowned and the Saved
from Vintage
Price: $10.36

Customer Review:
"The Drowned and the Saved" by Primo Levi, is different in one aspect from his earlier works dealing with his experiences in Auschwitz: in the previous books, he was still an impassioned young man, racing as it was to record his memories and experiences. For later in life, memory can become less... more info

3.The ReawakeningThe Reawakening
from Touchstone
Price: $10.20

Customer Review:
I was surprised to see so few reviews for this book on Amazon. "The Reawakening" is one of the great works of literature of the 20th century - and one of the most enjoyable. Levi's "Survival in Auschwitz" is a good book, and obviously a very important historical document. But with "The Reawakening,"... more info

from Da Capo Press
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
I bought this book to see the "other side" point of view
The view from the hantchman eyes.
Well, I think this book is worth reading, not only to see see how cruel and perverse one can get but olso how hatred can lead to unimaganable crime.
Hoss writes this book from prison... more info

5.The Periodic TableThe Periodic Table
from Schocken
Price: $10.36

Customer Review:
Like other reviewers, I sometimes found the science in this book a bit hard to follow. But that was made up for by the general loveliness of Levi's dry wit. My favorite examples-
- "a livered [solidified] paint is much more rebellious, more refractory to your will than a lion in its mad pounce;... more info

6.If This Is a Man and The TruceIf This Is a Man and The Truce
from Abacus

Customer Review:
A truly wonderful book by a great author. In this volume you get Levi's If This Is a Man, his story of his trials in one of the satellite camps of Auschwitz, and The Truce, the story of his long journey from Auschwitz back home to Turin. In the "Afterword" included with this edition (Abacus edition... more info

7.Commandant of Auschwitz : The Autobiography of Rudolf HoessCommandant of Auschwitz : The Autobiography of Rudolf Hoess
from Phoenix Press
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
After Dachau was liberated, Army intelligence interviewed a woman at the camp who claimed to have been Rudolf Hoess' mistress while at Auschwitz. What details they could check were confirmed, and her interview became part of a Seventh Army report issued a few weeks later, a report that has been... more info

9.If Not Now, When? (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics)If Not Now, When? (Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $11.25

Customer Review:
Setting aside its profound Jewish interest, the book is an outstanding chronicle of WWII, rich with detail concerning the hardships, the cold, the Russian-Polish landscape, the polyglot bands of homeless partisans and refugees, their ruthless tactics for survival,and the ugliness and arbitrariness... more info

from Penguin Classics
Price: $11.20

Customer Review:
I finished this book and read it all the way through again less than a month later. There are lots of things to like about it. Mainly, though, I like it because it conveys a sense of joy in work, in writing, in the less spectacular aspects of life that can be as much a source of happiness as can the... more info

11.A Tranquil Star: StoriesA Tranquil Star: Stories
from W. W. Norton
Price: $9.55

Customer Review:

That Primo Levi remains the author of perhaps the finest memoir of the Holocaust remains beyond dispute. His crisp vivid prose have helped half a century of readers imagine the unimaginable, yet Levi's work extended far beyond his memoirs of the evil he endured, but unfortunately, like... more info

12.Moments of Reprieve: A Memoir of Auschwitz (Twentieth Century Classics)Moments of Reprieve: A Memoir of Auschwitz (Twentieth Century Classics)
from Penguin Classics
Price: $10.16

Customer Review:
This book is lovely, but it is worth pointing out that it revisits characters that Levi has written in about in his previous memoirs, and is much more satisfying as an appendix than a freestanding work. The chapters on Cesare and Lorenzo gain a great deal of depth if one has already read If This Is... more info

from Faber & Faber

Customer Review:
The book comprises the former editions 'Shema' and 'At an Uncertain Hour' as well as eighteen previously uncollected poems. The poems combine a sometimes distanced stance with a very intimate and poignant emotion. Levi manages to capture a sense of the futility of life in the face of evil; the fact... more info

from Abacus

Customer Review:
It is really unfortunate that this book is out of print now, it deserves to be reissued and widely read. Those who know of Primo Levi only know, for the most part, that he was a partisan, was a survivior of Auschwitz, a chemist, and died, a likely suicide. All of these are true. However, there is... more info

17.Auschwitz ReportAuschwitz Report
from Verso
Price: $10.98

Customer Review:
As you may already know, Primo Levi on the Holocaust can be seriously depressing.
The brief Auschwitz Report is an uemotional report of some of the events and practices
Levi witnessed there. Perhaps the lack of obvious emotion brings our horror into sharp relief.
