Publisher's Synopsis
Planet Auschwitz is comprised of fifty poems that explore events and atrocities of the Nazis during the holocaust of World War II. Each poem of five quatrains expands on a historical epigraph as a point of focus. While the poems individually serve as a snapshot of some aspect of the war, as a collection they document its evolution from early discrimination and persecution of "undesirables" to mass incarceration and obscure methods of extermination of those the Nazis identified as expendable.
