Quatrième de couverture :

'Brilliantly detailed, moving, powerful and gripping' The Times

The extraordinary story of Oskar Schindler, who risked his life to protect Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland and was transformed by the war from a profiteering womanizer into an unlikely angel of mercy.

First published in 1982, Schindler's Ark became an international bestseller when it won the Booker Prize and was subsequently made into a multi-Oscar-winning film directed by Steven Spielberg. This paperback edition, published to celebrate Sceptre's 30th anniversary, features an exclusive new afterword by the author.

'Keneally has done marvellous justice to a marvellous story' Sunday Times
