Auschwitz

Medical examination

Notorious Dr. Mengele

The crematory

How old are you?

Whose tear was that?

Like an orphan

A distinguished violinist

Cherished objects

Smashed, trampled

Warning! Danger of death!

Don’t lose courage

Drive out despair

Muster your strength

Spring sunshine

This is a little paradise

Optimistic speeches, which no one believed

Dark flame

Antechamber of hell

Jews, look!

I can see fire!

Shot like dogs

We had ceased to be men

Friends of yesterday

Beaten

Inhuman weariness

Slow agony

Sleep had fled

One “last night” to another

Pitch darkness

Masters of nature, masters of the world

Deny God’s existence

Why should I bless his name?

I had no right

I had ceased to feel fear

The inheritance

American tank

Tomorrow’s another day

Never shall I forget

I believed profoundly

Was I still alive?

Yellow star

You can’t die of it

Open tomb

Anything is possible

No longer touched

Those absent

Surface of our memories

True answers in yourself

A starved stomach

Where is God?

Angel of death

Disinfection

Surely it was a dream

Skilled workers

We pretended

An assassin’s face

Depths of my heart

Felt a great void

Block 57

Forward march!

It snowed relentlessly

Don’t think

Don’t stop! Run!

Leave thoughts for later

I’m afraid

Invisible assassin

Form fives

I can’t go on

That’s not my business

A summons to which I did not respond

I did not weep

A corpse gazed back at me
