After joining the resistance, he was captured and deported to the Auschwitz extermination camp in 1944. He survived and, upon his return, felt the urgent need to bear witness. His first and most famous work, \"If This Is a Man,\" is a raw but lucid account of his experience, transcending mere narration to become a profound analysis of dehumanization. His legacy, which also includes titles such as \"The Truce\" and \"The Drowned and the Saved,\" is an invaluable reminder of barbarism and a constant call to memory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 223\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Primo Levi\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Austral\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdition:\u003c\/b\u003e 2024\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9788499426976\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Austral","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54601803202886,"sku":"Bolsillo 1\/Bal 3","price":10.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0797\/5590\/3302\/files\/Siestoesunhombre.webp?v=1749655804","url":"https:\/\/libreriacasadrojan.com\/en\/products\/si-esto-es-un-hombre","provider":"Librería Casa Drojan","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
