The book "Escape from Sobibor" is a fictionalized story about the events that took place in the extermination camp in Sobibor. The author, Thomas Toivi Blatt, describes the inhuman everyday life of the camp, where death lurked at every turn. His account is shocking, but at the same time full of hope and determination to survive.

Blatt, a Polish Jew, was only sixteen years old when he and his family were imprisoned in Sobibor. His parents and younger brother died in the gas chamber, and he himself miraculously escaped death. He survived the nightmare to take part in one of the largest uprisings and mass escapes in the history of the camps. Of the nearly three hundred prisoners who managed to escape, only sixty lived to see the end of the war.

After the war, in exile in the USA, Blatt devoted his life to documenting Nazi crimes. His book is an important testimony to history, which reminds us of the cruelty of war and the need to remember the victims. In 1987, the Golden Globe-winning film "Escape from Sobibor" was made based on the book, which brought the story of this extermination camp closer to the world.
