    @auschwitzmuseum this is the first post that I have noticed that remembers someone who survived. I watched The Woman in Gold the other night and also remembered The Hare with Amber Eyes - both beautiful accounts - but I can't think of any that have been written by ordinary people who survived about what life was like for them when they returned to ordinary life. Do you have many records of survivors lives after liberation?

    @auschwitzmuseum I recall Tadeusz Borowski in (as it's called in English) "This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen" about his time as an (unofficial?) kapo in Auschwitz, at some point they stopped gassing Aryan[ish]* Poles who did as they were told, which in his case involved the ad hoc murder of prisoners almost at random…which contributed to his suicide after the war.

    *Nazis believed there were lost Aryans among the Poles, going so far as to kidnap some Polish children to Germans to raise.
