This is the incredible autiobiography of Herman Kahan. In this book, Kahan relates to the story of his life and explains his religion to Knut M. Hansson. His is a shocking and thought-provoking story - a tale of imhuman suffering in Concentration Camps and in Wolfsberg labor camp, but also of the reclamation of a life believed lost.
