i'm going to keep asking this until i get a decent answer. holocaust story.?

Question

Who wrote this and what's it titled? And all you folks who answer "i dunno", please stop juicing me for 2 points.

it's a short story about an incident that occured during the Holocaust. a Jewish (?) man is taken by the Nazis and told to dig 3 graves and bury 3 Polish men alive. he refuses. the Nazis then tell the Polish to do the same to the Jew. they bury the man up to his head and are then ordered to dig him out. once the Jewish fellow is out he is ordered to dig the graves again and this time he does. after he has buried the last Polish person, he is shot in the stomach and left to bleed to death.

Answer 1

There's an online Jewish Bookstore. You can e-mail them or go to their chat and I bet you'll find your answer. I don't recall ever reading this story.

Here's the link.

I don't know the story offhand, but you might try looking for Holocaust short story anthologies.

Borowski, Tadeausz. This Way for the Gas, Ladies and Gentlemen. New York: Viking Penguin, 1992.

Through this collection of remarkable short stories, Borowski describes his experiences in Auschwitz and Dachau. His focus is on the atmosphere of the camps and its effect on the inner being. He probes the minds of both victims and perpetrators.

Fink, Ida. A Scrap of Time. New York: Schochen, 1989.

The title story in this collection of short stories concerns the way time was measured by Holocaust victims. Other stories describe people in a variety of normal human situations distorted by the circumstances of the times.

When Night Fell: An Anthology of Holocaust Short Stories
(Schermer, Linda, ed.)

Friedlander, Albert. Out of the Whirlwind. New York: Schocken, 1989.

Glatstein, Jacob. Anthology of Holocaust Literature. New York: Macmillan, 1973.

This collection of stories is specifically Polish.

The Polish Perspective
Tadeusz Borowski is perhaps the least known of all the important Holocaust writers. He was a member of the Polish resistance and, as such, sent to Auschwitz for political “crimes” rather than racial “impurity.” As such, he was afforded the “opportunity” by the Nazi’s to save himself by helping man the extermination machinery.

In his collection of Short Stories This Way to the Gas Ladies and Gentlemen, Borowski not only lets us in on the horrors of living through Auschwitz but also on the unbearable guilt he took away from it for having acquiesced in some small way and—more importantly—having survived.

Ultimately, this guilt proved too much for Borowski, and he committed suicide shortly after the war. His short stories paint a unique picture of how the Holocaust never let some of its victims out of its grasp even after they were freed.
