Title : Conversations and Interviews - Primo Levi - Book

Summary :

"It is up to the reader to gather, behind the words of these transcriptions, the truth that vibrates in Levi's words and which manifests itself in the double aspect of an unexpected optimism and a lucid pessimism." Marco Belpoliti.

When If it is a man it seems , in 1947, he went unnoticed. It would take more than ten years before a new edition revealed Primo Levi not only as a major witness to the Nazi concentration camp universe, but also as a great writer. Primo Levi, who said he owed his literary vocation to Auschwitz, constantly returned to what he had written in his masterpiece. He became a guardian of memory, an interlocutor always ready to illuminate our vision of the camps, of Nazism and anti-Semitism, and to warn against the return of this evil in the same form or in others. In this collection of interviews broadcast on the radio or published in the written press, he delves further into – with his genius for precision, his irony and his lofty perspective – these questions that are at the heart of his work. An opportunity to hear again, one hundred years after his birth, the voice of an author for whom speech was an extension of writing.
