Available in English for the first time, Joaquim Amat-Piniella's searing Catalan novel, K.L. Reich, is a central work of testimonial literature of the Nazi concentration camps. Begun immediately after Amat-Piniella's liberation in 1945, the book is based on his own four-year internment at Mauthausen.
Available in English for the first time, Joaquim Amat-Piniella's portrayal of life in the camps is unmatched in scope and detail. It's also a compelling study of three powerful ideological movements at work at the time: anarchism, communism, and fascism, all within the desperate and brutal world of the camps.
