Otto is a Sinti and tells the story of his experiences within the concentration camps. He talks about the conditions and lack of water, food, clothing, and shoes. It is a sad but very detailed account. He talks about leaving the camp, finding people providing food, drink, and aid. Eventually he reunites with relatives and other Gypsies.
The foreword and afterword are written by Petra Rosenberg, Otto’s daughter. She writes about his acknowledgements and his hard work getting recognition for Sinti and Roma cultures. If you enjoy reading biographies, historical events, or World War II, you may enjoy reading this book.
