| La mort est mon métier
| | Robert Merle
| The story begins in 1913, when Rudolf Lang is 13 years old. His parents give him a harsh catholic education, which is very badly accepted by Rudolf. His unstable father, with whom the young Lang has an awkward relationship, wants Rudolf to become priest. At the age of fifteen, Lang starts his military career which eventually leads him to the post of commandant of Auschwitz in 1943. At first a concentration camp, then an extermination camp, the town of Auschwitz became the place where “this slow and clumsy creation of a death factory” occurs. Lang works hard to achieve his mission: kill as many Jews as possible and get rid of the bodies in the most efficient way.
