The German-Jewish writer H.G. Adler, born in Prague in 1910, was imprisoned
in Theresienstadt, Auschwitz and Buchenwald, and emigrated to London in
1947, where he lived and worked until his death in 1988. He is mainly known
for studies on the holocaust, notably "Theresienstadt 1941-1945" (1955) and
"Der verwaltete Mensch" (1974), and for his novels "Eine Reise" (1962) and
"Panorama" (1968). He wrote poetry throughout his life, including the years
in the camps, and saw it as central to his life's work.
