A reflection on “O Campo de Terezin”, by Ecléa Bosi, which describes a confinement area with special characteristics for jewish people. Constructed to shelter notable people, as scientists, war heroes and artists, it gained features of an exuberant city for those who came from abroad to visit it, in arts and sports, above all. The terror of definition of who would be chosen to survive or die was managed internally. Reading her text was as we felt life pulsing in its enchantments - the music, the vibration, the joy -, but, fundamentally, to experiment its horrors: the pain, the silence and the death. It is impossible to go through those pages without losing breath and sharing with the author the affliction from the actors.
