Document Summary
Chapter 15 die drei leute vom labor. Primo levi survival in auschwitz: there are only 21 men left of the 96 italian jews who arrived with primo at auschwitz. It"s the middle of winter, and snowing regularly. Hint: no: the chemical kommando has been working at moving sacks of the chemical phenylbeta. This is a nasty chemical that burns their skin and makes it come off in patches: what an irony that those who took the chemical examination thought they would have a cushier job. They"re doing harder work than everyone else, and don"t even get warmer clothes. Jewish ghetto, and no one will ever know about it. But the germans don"t seem to care, because they"re again making plans to fire up the rubber factory: for now, though, primo has a much easier time.
