Synopsis
Simon Wiesenthal, a Holocaust survivor, recounts a profound encounter in a Nazi concentration camp where a dying SS soldier seeks his forgiveness. This book then presents the responses of 53 diverse individuals—from theologians to survivors of other genocides—to Wiesenthal's question: What would you have done? Their varied perspectives challenge readers to consider their own beliefs on justice, compassion, and human responsibility in the face of unimaginable acts.
