«Was für ein schöner Sonntag!» is Jorge Semprún's autobiographical novel, published by Süddeutsche Zeitung in hardback (426 pages, in German).
Semprún starts from a winter Sunday in 1944 in Buchenwald to reconstruct daily life in the camp and survival strategies. The narrative links that memory with an autobiographical portrait ranging from childhood in Madrid to exile, militancy in the Communist Party of Spain, expulsion from the party, and the origin of his writing.
Volume 17 of the Süddeutsche Zeitung Bibliothek collection; translation by Johannes Piron of the French original «Quel beau dimanche!», published in 1980.
Of interest to readers of historical fiction, Holocaust memory, and concentration camp testimonies.
