"Schindler's List" is a remarkable work of fiction based on

the true story of German industrialist and war profiteer,

Oskar Schindler, who, confronted with the horror of the

extermination camps, gambled his life and fortune to

rescue 1,300 Jews from the gas chambers.

Working with the actual testimony of Schindler's Jews,

Thomas Keneally artfully depicts the courage and

shrewdness of an unlikely savior, a man who is a flawed

mixture of hedonism and decency and who, in the presence

of unutterable evil, transcends the limits of his own

humanity.
