Arbeitskommando

Spisovatel: Williams Elvet, Coronet books 1978
Katalogové číslo: O8904

Private Elvet Williams was captured in Crete in 1941. He was destined for imprisonment in the arbeitskommandos - work camps - of Europe. Isolated in hostile country, these camps worked their 'other ranks' prisoners long and exhausting hours. There was no energy left for forming Escape Committees, manufacturing disguises, false papers or money. And escaping involved not only breaking out of camp, but surviving the killing run for home across an enemy-occupied continent. But Private Williams was determined to escape - and to survive. ARBEITSKOMMANDO is the other side of the prisoner of war story; how ordinary men could still fight and overcome impossible odds to be free.... v angličtine, brožovaná, menší formát, 252 strán

Schindler´s List

Spisovatel: Keneally Thomas, Penguin 2008
Katalogové číslo: F3735

A mesmerizing novel based on the true story of Oskar Schindler, a German industralist who saved and succored more than 1000 Jews from the Nazis at enormous financial and emotional expense. How the German Oskar Schindler came to save more than one thousand Polish Jews during the Holocaust is one of the most fascinating stories of the century. Although millions are now learning about Schindler through Steven Spielberg's recent Academy AwardR-winning film, his achievement first gained prominence with Keneally's 1982 "facticious" novel (which is also the basis for the film). Keneally's account is less melodramatic than the motion picture, and although he does not fully explain how a hedonistic German could have been so altered by the plight of the Jewish workers in his factory, he does make Schindler less enigmatic than the big-screen version. Ben Kingsley, one of the film's stars, reads in a calculatedly matter-of-fact tone, letting the story's power alone convey its complicated emotions.... v angličtine, brožovaná, 106 strán + CD
