The Long Voyage

A young Spaniard captured with 119 others fighting with the French Resistance counts off the days and nights as the truck rolls slowly but inexorably towards Buchenwald. During the seemingly endless journey, he has conversations that range from his childhood to speculations about the death camps. When at last the fantastic, Wagnerian gates to Buchenwald come into sight, the young Spaniard is left alone to face the camp. A profound literary account, fierce and moving.
