Excellent book; captivating from page 1 until the lastBy LifePuzzlePoignant story of how the gays were forgotten; left in limbo after World War II and kept as prisoners even when everyone else were freed from concentration camps. Shocking story; with few survivors to tell it. Very interesting and educating. I recommend it highly.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. But I did like the bookBy J. HeikkaDepressing as hell. But I did like the book.... A must read for some of the younger generations that have no idea about the degree of persecution faced by homosexuals in the past.I was born in the mid-seventies and I have never faced any serious adversity due to my sexuality. I even came on the tail end of the worst of the AIDS crisis. I only know about the struggles faced by gays and lesbians in the past because I read about them. I am afraid there will come a time when people will equate the historic struggles of gays with marriage equality and national hate crime legislation and no one will even think back to the time when just being suspected of being a sexual deviant could get you put in torture camps or killed in gas chambers.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Heartbreaking but tells the realityBy CustomerGot my book earlier than expected. Came in condition seller posted. A must read; persecution of gay men and women during the holocaust was real. 70+ years later and this time persecution of the lgbt still exists in different forms.
