About this product
Product Information
At the age of 14 Georg Koves is plucked from his home in a Jewish section of Budapest and without any particular malice, placed on a train to Auschwitz. He does not understand the reason for his fate. He doesn't particularly think of himself as Jewish. And his fellow prisoners, who decry his lack of Yiddish, keep telling him, "You are no Jew." In the lowest circle of the Holocaust, Georg remains an outsider. The genius of Imre Kertesz's unblinking novel lies in its refusal to mitigate the strangeness of its events, not least of which is Georg's dogmatic insistence on making sense of what he witnesses-or pretending that what he witnesses makes sense. Haunting, evocative, and all the more horrifying for its rigorous avoidance of sentiment, Fatelessness is a masterpiece in the traditions of Primo Levi, Elie Wiesel, and Tadeusz Borowski.

The item was as pictured, came in super dusty but whatever. No telling how long it’s been sitting up so wasn’t that big of a deal to me. However, I did message the seller privately asking about shipping expectations as this was supposed to be a gift and the seller met me with rudeness/sarcasm. I understand that the postal service or vendor is in control once it leaves the seller’s premises, but my question about it’s arrival was more or less me not being familiar with time frames bc I don’t ship
