Describes Terezin, or Theresienstadt, a Nazi concentration camp in Czechoslovakia, where a distinctive and remarkable culture flourished. Artists such as Otto Ungar, Bedrich Fritta, Leo Haas, Karel Fleischmann, doctors and rabbis, children as well as adults, turned to art, poetry and philosophy not merely to record their plight but to reassert their humanity and to fight back with their only weapon - the undying, creative human spirit. #hardcover
