Tanzbah'. Memories of a Jewish Boy on the Run in Fascist Italy

Italo Bassani

Each story offers us a specific point of view on the tragedy of the Shoah, both the story of the many who lost their lives crushed by the most brutal death machine ever conceived by the human mind, and the testimony of the few survivors. Republishing "Tanzbah'. Memories of a Jewish Boy" today leads us to reflect on the nightmare of the persecution unleashed against the Jewish people seen through the eyes of a child, younger than Anne Frank, but very lucid in his images and memories.
Italo Bassani is a name. A name of a victim. A name of a survivor. An Italian child, son of a good bourgeois family, born in Turin, but he soon sees every certainty, patiently built with the work of his parents and grandparents, begin to crumble. The first key to his story is therefore the incredulity for a world that appears solid, but which crumbles before his eyes progressively, and ever more rapidly. A loss of rights, which occurs for the sole fact of being Jewish. For a fault that is not and cannot be considered a fault.
