The drowned and the saved
Levi, Primo, 1919-19872013
Book
Shortly after completing 'The Drowned and the Saved', Primo Levi committed suicide. The manner of his death was sudden, violent and unpremeditated, and there are some who argue that he killed himself because he was tormented by guilt that he had survived the horrors of Auschwitz while others had gone to the wall. This work dispels the myth that Primo Levi forgave the Germans for what they did to his people.
