Biographie de l'auteur
Jean-François Steiner is a writer and academic renowned for his nonfictional novel Treblinka: The Revolt of an Extermination Camp.
Simone de Beauvoir was born in Paris in 1908. In 1929 she became the youngest person ever to obtain the agrégation in philosophy at the Sorbonne, placing second on the exam to Jean-Paul Sartre. de Beauvoir taught at lycées in Marseille and Rouen from 1931 to 1937, and in Paris from 1938 to 1943. After World War II, she emerged as one of the leaders of the existentialist movement, working with Sartre on Les Temps modernes. The author of many acclaimed works, de Beauvoir was one of the most influential thinkers of her generation. She died in 1986.
Terrence Des Pres (1939–1987) was a writer and researcher best known for his works The Survivor: An Anatomy of Life in the Death Camps and Praises and Dispraises. He received degrees from Southeast Missouri State Collage and Washington University, and also taught at Colgate University.
Présentation de l'éditeur
Nearly a million Jews were consumed by the ovens of Treblinka before August 2, 1943. On that day 600 prisoners armed with stolen guns and grenades attacked the Nazi guards, burned the camp, and fled into the nearby Polish forests. Of these, forty survived to bear witness to man’s courage in the face of the greatest evil human history has produced.
“Treblinka shatters our pessimism about human dignity . . . a book that restores our faith in the human spirit.”—Los Angeles Times
“Treblinka is a tale, not of defeat, but of triumph; not of extermination, but of vindication and transcendence . . . an answer to the Sabras’ unbearable, ferocious, and unforgiving question to their elders: how could it have happened? How could the Jews of Europe have gone to their slaughter like six million lambs?”—New York Book Review

Mass market paperback. Etat : Very good. Eighth Printing [Stated]. xxiim 15-304, [4] pages. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Introduction by Terrence Des Pres. Preface by Simone de Beauvoir. Jean-François Steiner is a French-Jewish writer born on 17 February 1938 in Paris. He is best known for his non-fiction novel Treblinka: The Revolt of an Extermination Camp first published in 1966 as Treblinka: la révolte d'un camp d'extermination; translated a year later by Helen Weaver for Simon & Schuster. Written in the first person, the book blames members of the Jewish Sonderkommando for assisting the German SS in perpetrating a genocide. Following outrage among French, Jewish and foreign academics, Steiner agreed to republish his book (which was a bestseller), by presenting it as a fictional account of the Treblinka extermination camp operation. The book remains very popular in France. When asked upon the publication of his book why death camps such as Treblinka had been 'avoided' by his own French contemporaries, Steiner replied: "In Treblinka, as in all the other extermination camps, the Germans had designed 'the machine' (as they referred to the methods of extermination) in such a way that it would almost run itself. It is the Jews who did everything." Treblinka was an extermination camp, built and operated by Nazi Germany in occupied Poland during World War II. It was located north-east of Warsaw, 2.5 mi south of the Treblinka train station. The camp operated between 23 July 1942 and 19 October 1943 as part of Operation Reinhard. During this time, it is estimated that between 700,000 and 900,000 Jews were killed in its gas chambers, along with 2,000 Romani people. More Jews were killed at Treblinka than at any other Nazi extermination camp apart from Auschwitz. The camp consisted of two separate units. Treblinka I was a forced-labor camp, whose prisoners worked in the gravel pit or irrigation area and in the forest, where they cut wood to fuel the crematoria. Between 1941 and 1944, more than half of its 20,000 inmates died from summary executions, hunger, disease and mistreatment. The second camp, Treblinka II, was an extermination camp, referred to euphemistically as the SS-Sonderkommando Treblinka by the Nazis. A small number of Jewish men who were not killed immediately upon arrival became its Jewish slave-labor units called Sonderkommandos, forced to bury the victims' bodies in mass graves.
