For the past four years Hancock and other American elites had traveled the South Seas to collect specimens for scientific research. On one trip to the Galápagos, Hancock was surprised to discover an equally exotic group of humans: European exiles who had fled political and economic unrest, hoping to create a utopian paradise.

Historia
No Road Leading Back is the remarkable story of a dozen prisoners who escaped from the site where more than 70,000 Jews were shot in the Lithuanian forest of Ponar after the Nazi invasion of Eastern Europe in 1941. Anxious to hide the incriminating evidence of the murders, the S.S. later in the war enslaved a group of Jews to exhume every one of the bodies and incinerate them all in a months-long labor—an episode whose specifics are staggering and disturbing, even within the context of the Holocaust.

Josef Mengele, known worldwide for unimaginably cruel human experiments and for sending thousands of people to the gas chambers at Auschwitz, was a fugitive in South America for thirty-four years after World War II, sought by the Israeli secret service and Nazi hunters.

Historia
In 1945, post-fascist Italy was devastated by war, and its reputation in the international arena was nil. Yet by December 1955, when Italy was admitted to the United Nations, the nation had contested three acrimonious but free general elections, had a flourishing press, and was a leader in the rebuilding of Europe.

Historia
"Considerate se questa è una donna | Senza capelli e senza nome | Senza piú forza di ricordare | Vuoti gli occhi e freddo il grembo | Come una rana d'inverno". È con questa immagine scarnificata che Primo Levi, nell'incipit di Se questo è un uomo, indica la necessità di riflettere sulla condizione delle donne prigioniere ad Auschwitz. Eppure per molti anni la storiografia e la testimonianza hanno appiattito l'esperienza femminile in una declinazione universale, in un neutro linguistico che, dimenticando i corpi sessuati, ha reso opaca l'intenzionalità stessa dello sterminio.
