Schindler's Ark Summary

Schindler's Ark: The Booker Prize winning novel filmed as 'Schindler's List' by Thomas Keneally

Winner of the Booker Prize and international bestseller, made into the award-winning film Schindler's List. Chosen as a Big Jubilee Read, celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee in 2022.

In the shadow of Auschwitz, a flamboyant German industrialist grew into a living legend to the Jews of Cracow. He was a womaniser, a heavy drinker and a bon viveur, but to them he became a saviour. This is the extraordinary story of Oskar Schindler, who risked his life to protect Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland and who was transformed by the war into a man with a mission, a compassionate angel of mercy.

Schindler's Ark Reviews

An extraordinary achievement -- Graham Greene
Brilliantly detailed, moving, powerful and gripping * The Times *
Thomas Keneally has done marvellous justice to a marvellous story * Sunday Times *
Keneally is a superb storyteller. With Schindler's Ark he has given us his best book yet, a magnificent novel which held me from the first page to the last -- Alan Sillitoe
This remarkable book has the immediacy and the almost unbearable detail of a thousand eye witnesses who forgot nothing * New York Times Book Review *
