I, Pierre Seel, Deported Homosexual: A Memoir of Nazi Terror

Author: Pierre Seel

On a fateful day in May 1941, in Nazi-occupied Strasbourg, 17-year-old Pierre Seel was summoned by the Gestapo. This was the beginning of his journey through the horrors of a concentration camp. For nearly 40 years, Seel kept this secret in order to hide his homosexuality. Eventually, he decided to speak out, bearing witness to an aspect of the Holocaust rarely seen. This edition, with a new foreword from gay-literature historian Gregory Woods, is an extraordinary firsthand account of the Nazi roundup and the deportation of homosexuals.
