The Return from the Other Planet

Auschwitz, literature, LSD

In 1945, just months after the liberation of Auschwitz and still in his striped prisoner uniform, Yechiel De-Nur begins to write and is reborn two weeks later under the name Ka-Tzetnik. His books become international bestsellers, but no one knew who he really was until his testimony at the Eichmann trial in 1961. Years later, during an LSD treatment, Ka-Tzetnik returns to his memories, imagining himself as an SS officer, and this changes everything.
