Abstract

Nazi Camp Speaking… Sur‑vivors Have Voice. Agnieszka Dauksza: Klub Auschwitz i inne kluby. Rwane opowieści przeżywców. Gdańsk, słowo/obraz terytoria, 2016, ss. 380. Nazi Camp Speaking… is a review of Agnieszka Dauksza’s Klub Auschwitz i inne kluby. Rwane opowieści przeżywców. The book was published in Gdańsk in 2016. It stems from the interviews with ten former prisoners of Nazi German concentration camps. These conversations embrace a rather long time span, including the pre‑war times, then the period between 1939 and 1945, and finally present times. The reader is thus provided with the panoramic view on the character’s fates, who are being persistently dubbed as “sur‑vivors,” since they endured the reality of Nazi camps. Currently, these people form a dwindling and hermetic group, whose members struggle with their everyday lives and seek their place in the contemporary society, which – if one keeps in mind their experience of the wartime – is tremendously difficult
