If Not Now, When?
Primo Levi was among the greatest witnesses to twentieth-century atrocity. In this gripping novel, based on a true story, he reveals the extraordinary lives of the Russian, Polish and Jewish partisans trapped behind enemy lines during the Second World War. Wracked by fear, hunger and fierce rivalries, they link up, fall apart, struggle to stay alive and to sabotage the efforts of the all-powerful German army. A compelling tale of action, resistance and epic adventure, it also reveals Levi`s characteristic compassion and deep insight into the moral dilemmas of total war. It ranks alongside “The Period Table” and “If This is a Man” as one of the rare authentic masterpieces of our times.
