Descrizione
Discusses whether it is possible to to bear witness to the Holocaust as a work of fiction. Miller's reading of Kertesz's use of character narration for ironic effects opens 'Fatelessness' to other readers. This autobiographical fiction may "contribute to the creation of a commumity of readers who may, if not know, at least not forget Auschwitz"
