Simon Wiesenthal

Introduction

While imprisoned at the Lemberg concentration camp in 1943, Simon Wiesenthal was summoned to the bedside of a dying Nazi soldier named Karl Seidl.

Seidl's final wish was to confess his crimes and receive absolution from someone Jewish.

Wiesenthal was an Austrian Holocaust survivor who devoted his post-war life to bringing Nazi war criminals to trial. He co-founded the Jewish Historical Documentation Centre to aid this work and to help Jewish refugees locate lost relatives.

Written in 1969, The Sunflower explores the incredible complexities of forgiveness.
