The Patagonian Hare by Claude Lanzmann.. For a guy who made the 9.5 hour cinematic tour-de-force, Shoah, I'm surprised his memoir weighs in at under 600 pp. But this is one hell of a life, and to read this book is to enlarge oneself. It might be time to revisit his brilliant movie, too. – Joel Gardner, LitSnap Editor |

"Without a doubt, one of the masterpieces of world literature." – Die Welt "Half a century of fury, tears and hopes related by one of the most important witnesses of our time." – L'Express |
