By exploring all of Levi's writings--including his short stories, poems, novels--Magavern introduces us to a talented writer who had a profound love of humanity, a sharp wit, a passion for his profession as a chemist--a man inspired by a variety of things beyond his Holocaust experience. Magavern brings a fresh, personal sensibility to the way we think about Levi and produces a hybrid book--part life story and part literary biography, finally doing justice to the man's calm rationality and essential beliefs.
