ANDRÉ SCHWARZ-BART (1928-2006) won the Goncourt Prize for The Last of the Just, a New York Times bestseller upon first publication, now in its sixth printing with Overlook. He was born in France. His parents were arrested in a Nazi roundup, and he served with the French Resistance.
Praise for Andr? Schwarz-Bart:
""The Last of the Just" transcends the definition of fiction. It is
part history, part vision, forged into a single echoing terrifying
outcry, at once lush and sardonic, full of color and heartbreaking
richness." --"The New York Times"
"The conflict over the ethics of aestheticizing horror is as old as
genocide itself, but Schwarz-Bart has come up with a unique
literary solution....What finally emerges from Schwarz-Bart's book
is a celebration of life in all its transience." --"Jewish Review
of Books"
