First edition, first printing of The Escape Artist by Jonathan Freedland, published by John Murray, London in 2022. A very fine copy signed by the author in black ink to the title page, in a similarly very fine unclipped wrapper.
The Escape Artist by Jonathan Freedland is a powerful non-fiction account of Rudolf Vrba, one of the first Jews to escape Auschwitz. Along with fellow escapee Alfred Wetzler, Vrba risked everything to expose the horrors of the Holocaust, compiling a detailed report to warn the world. The book chronicles his daring escape, the challenges of being believed and the emotional toll of his mission. It’s a gripping, heartbreaking tribute to bravery, truth and the fight against indifference.
