AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Assesses the accuracy of The Tattooist of Auschwitz's historical framework against the archival resources of the Auschwitz-Birkenau State Museum: acknowledges that the work is fiction, but also notes that the account of an Auschwitz tattooist is unique, and argues for the need for a documentary approach to unique resources around the Holocaust.
