Nine Suitcases

Written by:Stephen Mitchelmore.

In The Times, Ladislaus L�b, a professor at my old university (who tried to put me off doing an MA, I seem to remember!), tells how he came to publish a translation of a Holocaust memoir by a Hungarian writer with whom he shared a train containing “1,368 Hungarian Jewish men, women and children, who had just spent five months in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp”.

It’s called Nine Suitcases, and is by B�la Zsolt.
