In 'Death is My Trade', Robert Merle delves into the disturbed mind of Rudolf Lang, a man who, from a childhood marked by discipline and lack of affection, rises through the ranks of the Nazi regime to become the commander of Auschwitz. Through a cold and objective narrative, Merle explores the banality of evil and the human capacity for cruelty, inviting us to reflect on the horrors of the Holocaust and individual responsibility in the most atrocious acts of history.
Merle Robert Travis was an American country and western singer, songwriter, actor, and guitarist. Born in Rosewood, Kentucky, his songs' lyrics were often about the lives and the economic exploitation of American coal miners. Among his many well-known songs and recordings are "Sixteen Tons", "Re-Enlistment Blues", "I Am a Pilgrim", and "Dark as a Dungeon". He is best known today, though, for his unique guitar style, still called Travis picking by guitarists, as well as his interpretations of the rich musical traditions of his native Muhlenberg County, Kentucky. Travis picking is a syncopated style of guitar fingerpicking rooted in ragtime music in which alternating chords and bass notes are plucked by the thumb, while melodies are plucked by the index finger. He was inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1970 and elected to the Country Music Hall of Fame in 1977.
