The Pink Triangle: The Nazi War Against HomosexualsMainstream, 1987 - 104 pagini The first comprehensive book in English on the fate of homosexuals in Nazi Germany. The author, a German refugee, examines the climate and conditions that gave rise to a vicious campaign directed by Himmler and his SS against Germany's gays-- persecution that resulted in tens of thousands of arrests and thousands of deaths. Homosexual prisoners were confined to death camps where, forced to wear pink triangles, they constituted the lowest rung in the camp hierarchy. The horror of camp life is described through diaries, previously untranslated documents, and interviews with and letters from survivors. |
