If Not Now, When?
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
If Not Now, When? is the English title of the Italian novelist Primo Levi's 1982 novel, Se non ora, quando?. It recounts the saga of numerous members of a Jewish Resistance Movement in Nazi-occupied Russia and Poland during World War II. It is one of the key war novels of the post-war era, and an important contribution to the literature of the Holocaust. Levi himself fought as an anti-fascist partisan in Italy before being captured and, as a Jew, being sent to the Auschwitz extermination facility where he survived 11 months prior to liberation by the Red Army.
