Schindler's List

A historical novel based on the true story of Oskar Schindler, a German industrialist and war profiteer who, during the Holocaust, risked his life and fortune to save more than 1,100 Jewish lives from death camps in Nazi-occupied Poland. Originally titled 'Schindler's Ark,' the book uses the actual testimony of the Schindlerjuden (Schindler’s Jews) to portray the courage and cunning of an unlikely savior. Set against the horrors of the Płaszów labor camp and the shadow of Auschwitz, it follows Schindler's transformation from a flamboyant, profit-driven womanizer into a man who used his enamelware factory as a sanctuary, continually outwitting the SS and the brutal commandant Amon Goeth to protect his workers. Keneally’s Booker Prize-winning work serves as a powerful account of human resilience and one man's attempt to do good in the midst of unspeakable evil.
