{"description":"On October 7 1944, a group of Jewish prisoners in Auschwitz rebelled, bombing Crematorium IV. The desperate uprising was defeated by the end of the day, with over 400 prisoners killed, including Zalmen Gradowski.\n\nThe Last Consolation Vanished: The Testimony of a Sonderkommando in Auschwitz is the first full English translation of his extraordinary, powerful account of life and death there, written in Yiddish and buried in the ashes near Crematorium III.\n\nHis is a voice speaking to us from the past on behalf of millions who were silenced. Professor Arnold Davidson, the book\u2019s co-editor, discusses this extraordinary work with documentary film-maker Toby Perl Freilich.","height":720,"html":"<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%\"><iframe src=\"https://skiv.com/embed/TXxCF37\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0;top:0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"fullscreen\" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>","provider_name":"Skiv","provider_url":"https://skiv.com","thumbnail_height":198,"thumbnail_url":"https://cdn.skiv.com/u/MkG8VMM/c2313bb6af1f5d2701033d8e47f546b353499e83ee92659dfa9f5f45e58bf885/thumbnails/thumbnail.jpg","thumbnail_width":352,"title":"The Last Consolation Vanished","type":"video","url":"https://skiv.com/v/TXxCF37","version":"1.0","width":1280}
