Inmate 1818

the long version

"Inmate 1818 and other stories represents the third iteration of my collection of Holocaust-related short fiction. The first edition of these stories was published in 2001 in a bilingual Russian and English version titled Golem of Auschwitz: stories ... the first edition was translated into Chinese and published in 2004. This edition can be downloaded in full and free of charge at www.bernardotterman.com ... Subsequently, I wrote additional stories inspired by the Holocaust ... These were included in a 2008 English language edition titled Black grass and other stories ... I present today Inmate 1818 and other stories. This collection includes newly revised versions of all previously published stories, plus the translator prefaces to the Russian and Chinese editions. These prefaces provide powerful windows into these societies' views of the Holocaust, and the significance of the collection to each culture."--Author's preface.
