"'I am a person who needs to communicate constantly, who suffers if he cannot communicate. I need to speak and to write, to have a two-way communication, if possible.' This sentence, so simple and direct, reveals a multitude of compelling needs; to express himself and to listen, finding interlocutors everywhere, of every age, social condition, and level of culture. Primo Levi spoke -- about Auschwitz and much more--to Italian students who were born after WWII, to Germans from the post-Nazi era, and also to the person he had become forty years after the Lager, in dialogues he constructed with patience, straightorwardness, and intelligence. As it illustrates the various weaves and inflections, this Lezione addresses Levi's ever-renewing pool of interlocutors: the readers of today and tomorrow" -- Back cover.
