The Stunning and Emotional Autobiography of an Auschwitz Survivor April 7, 1944—This date marks the successful escape of two Slovak prisoners from one of the most heavily-guarded and notorious concentration camps of Nazi Germany. The escapees, Rudolf Vrba and Alfred Wetzler, fled over one hundred miles to be the first to give the graphic and detailed descriptions of the atrocities of Auschwitz. Originally published in the early 1960s, I Escaped from Auschwitz is the striking autobiography of none other than Rudolf Vrba himself. Vrba details his life leading up to, during, and after his escape from his 21-month internment in Auschwitz. Vrba and Wetzler manage to evade Nazi authorities looking for them and make contact with the Jewish council in Zilina, Slovakia, informing them about the truth of the “unknown destination” of Jewish deportees all across Europe. This first-hand report alerted Western authorities, such as Pope Pius XII, Winston Churchill, and Franklin D. Roosevelt, to the reality of Nazi annihilation camps—information that until then had only been recognized as nasty rumors.I Escaped from Auschwitz is a close-up look at the horror faced by the Jewish people in Auschwitz and across Europe during World War II. This newly edited translation of Vrba’s memoir will leave readers reeling at the terrors faced by those during the Holocaust. Despite the profound emotions brought about by this narrative, readers will also find an astounding story of heroism and courage in the face of seemingly hopeless circumstances.

(Mild spoilers toward the end.) I have read any number of Holocaust memoirs. This, along with "Miracle at Dachau," is one of the most remarkable. It stands out particularly for its clear descriptions of the hierarchies within Auschwitz itself, where the political prisoner kapos were generally more decent to the inmates than the criminal kapos, and where those who worked in kitchens or storerooms clearly had a better chance of survival than ordinary inmates because they could steal or barter food - much better currency than money. The description of "Canada," the section of Auschwitz devoted to carefully sorting and cataloging all the myriad belongings looted from the deportees, is especially fascinating. While anyone who has seen the film "Night and Fog" or similar histories knows there were mountains of women's hair and pile upon pile of shoes and other artifacts, Vrba's description of actually working in the storerooms and seeing how the hair was turned into blankets for Nazi soldiers, or how baby shoes taken from gassed infants were sent back to German mothers as "gifts from the Reich" help explain both the commercialization of the Nazi's genocide and how German civilians were fooled into believing Hitler really cared about them. Among many other observations, Vrba notes that tubes of toothpaste looted from the deportees were meticulously squeezed empty on the chance, as sometimes happened, that a deportee had hidden a jewel or gold in them, vainly hoping to later buy or bribe his freedom. And Vrba's story is certainly filled with improbable luck - avoiding "farmwork" that would have meant his death, stumbling on a Hitler Youth outing after his and Fred's escape and being saved by the weather, being spotted in hiding in a park with with Fred by an SS officer out with his family who, fortuitously leaping to the wrong conclusion, fails to turn them in - and many similar events. Vrba's work also has the virtue of deliberate research and study of the horrors of Auschwitz during his captivity there for the sake of alerting the world. His escape is supported by the camp resistance in part because it is a conscious attempt to warn Jews still free and the world at large of the malignity of the camp. He memorizes any number of aspects of Auschwitz, including its geography, and when he and Fred finally reach safety in Hungary, they immediately draft a typed thirty odd page report that after some months finds its way to the Vatican, to Franklin Roosevelt, and to Churchill. Unlike some memoirs as well, the original version of his book is written less than ten years after the end of the war, meaning memories were still fresh and confirmation with others still possible. All in all, it is an incredible and unique testament to one of the greatest crimes of the Second World War.
