A Tranquil Star – Unpublished Short Stories of Primo Levi

Primo Levi is the most honest intepreter of the Holocaust and of his own life and experiences. He envelopes the reader and invites him to become part of him as he tells about his life, experiences and the philosophy that is his life. One can feel his sensitivity and honesty in all his writing-he is not out to impress but rather to document in language that is sophisticated but clear. I have read all his books, he has molded the way I see life and what I expect of it and myself. This book is a collection of short stories clearly written and constantly demanding that the reader think and move beyond himself and his life. I highly recomend this book and all others he has written.
