Présentation de l'éditeur
When the Nazis invaded Poland Janusz Bardach was twenty, a young middle-class Jew who was well-educated, spoke Russian, and believed in the promises of communism. Escaping to join the Red Army, he found himself part of a crazy, paranoid world dominated by the malignant figure of Stalin. His criticism of the regime led to a sentence of ten years hard labour in the gulag. In MAN IS WOLF TO MAN he describes in moving detail life in the Siberian gulag - the terror and cruelty, the near-starvation and back-breaking physical labour. Those who couldn't keep going would be shot and many men went mad. Bardach was a survivor and, pretending he had medical training, he bluffed his way into a job as a doctor's assistant. Working with TB sufferers, almost dying from the disease himself, he rediscovered his own humanity in caring for others. Written without bitterness, MAN IS WOLF TO MAN is a testament to human endurance under the most oppressive circumstances.
