The Librarian of Auschwitz - Antonio Iturbe *spoiler warning-ish* The Librarian of Auschwitz follows Edita Kraus, more commonly known as Dita. Dita is a 15-year-old Jewish girl who was living in Auschwitz. Dita is a real person, and all of the events are based on history. As the title says, she is the “librarian” for Block 31, the family camp. She conceals books and gives them to the instructors to teach the kids when the Germans aren’t paying attention, and it is her job to gather the books and hide when inspections happen.

These sentences are very jarring, because it interrupts the pros...
