About this product
Product Information
This volume sheds light on two brilliant but lesser known ghetto journalists: Josef Zelkowicz and Peretz Opoczynski. An ordained rabbi, Zelkowicz became a key member of the archive in the Lodz ghetto. Opoczynski was a journalist and mailman who contributed to the Warsaw ghetto's secret Oyneg Shabes archive. While other ghetto writers sought to create an objective record of their circumstances, Zelkowicz and Opoczynski chronicled daily life and Jewish responses to ghettoization by the Nazis with powerful immediacy. Expertly translated by David Suchoff, with an elegant introduction by Samuel Kassow, these profound writings are at last accessible to contemporary readers.

Reviews
"One hopes this abridged edition will bring Opoczynski and Zelkowicz the attention they deserve."-- Choice, "One hopes this abridged edition will bring Opoczynski and Zelkowicz the attention they deserve."-- Choice " In Those Nightmarish Days is a masterpiece of Holocaust literature. The writings of Opoczynski and Zelkowicz prove that, even in the face of extermination, great literature can provide a trustworthy historical record, an imaginative counterforce, and a lasting witness."-- Eric Sundquist, Johns Hopkins University "The vivid writing and able translations of the wartime essays make this book a powerful read. Kassow's introduction, deeply informed by scholarship, is eloquent and provides the contexts that bring the essays to life."--Sara R.Horowitz, York University, " In Those Nightmarish Days is a masterpiece of Holocaust literature.

Good packaging, arrived quickly. The only slight issue is that the image used implied the book was signed, but the listing itself never claimed it was signed. I wouldn't say it's completely deceptive, but it is pushing it a little. The price was great either way, so it's inconsequential for this specific listing.
