12 November 1922 | A Pole, Tadeusz Borowski, was born. A poet, writer & journalist.

In Auschwitz from 29 June 1943.
No. 119198
Liberated in Dachau. A lot of his post-war literature described the horrors of the camp.

It is that very hope that makes people go without a murmur to the gas chambers, keeps them from risking a revolt, paralyses them into numb inactivity. It is hope that breaks down family ties, makes mothers renounce their children, or wives sell their bodies for bread, or husbands kill. It is hope that compels man to hold on to one more day of life, because that day may be the day of liberation. Ah, and not even the hope for a different, better world, but simply for life, a life of peace and rest. Never before in the history of mankind has hope been stronger than man, but never also has it done so much harm as it has in the war, in this concentration camp. We were never taught how to give up hope, and this is why today we perish in gas chambers.” Tadeusz Borowski’
Tadeusz Borowski, “Night Over Birkenau™ Again the night. Again the fearsome sky Gyres like a vulture, like a beast of prey It crouches on the camp, on the dead quict. Pale as a corpse, the moon sets far away. And like a shield cast to the ground in battle. Amid the stars Azure Orion lies. On through the dark the transports’ motors rattle. Then the gleam in the crematoria's eyes Scalding and stifling. Slumber like a stone. Breath is choked out. The throat is split and red. The heavy boot pressed down on the breast-bone Cracks like the silence of three million dead. Night, endless night, and no light overland. The eyes are gassed with slumber, numb the brow. Like God's own Judgment on the world of man The fog must now come down on Birkenau. Translated by A.Z. Foreman
