"ETERNAL TREBLINKA: Our Treatment of Animals and the Holocaust" -- the groundbreaking book by American author Charles Patterson -- is fast becoming an international sensation.
August 14, 2005 (Press Release) --
ETERNAL TREBLINKA (1-930051-99-9) continues to attract international attention.
The Pardes Publishing House in Haifa will publish the Israeli edition later this fall. This Hebrew translation will be the book's sixth since the English edition was published three years ago in New York City.
ETERNAL TREBLINKA has already been translated and published in Germany, Italy, Poland, Croatia, and the Czech Republic, and Portugese and Japanese translations are underway.
The website of Prijatelji Zivotinja (Animal Friends Croatia) in Zagreb, where the Croatian edition was recently published, describes ETERNAL TREBLINKA as follows: "The book that breaks all taboos. The book that fires up controversies all over the world."
The book's title comes from the Yiddish writer and Nobel Laureate, Isaac Bashevis Singer, to whom the book is dedicated. He was the first major modern author to describe the exploitation and slaughter of animals in terms of the Holocaust. "In relation to them, all people are Nazis," he wrote, "for animals it is an eternal Treblinka." (Treblinka was the Nazi death camp north of Warsaw.)
WHAT THEY'RE SAYING--
"Compelling, controversial, iconoclastic...strongly recommended...a unique contribution." --Midwest Book Review
"Eternal Treblinka should be on every list of essential reading for an informed citizenry...for the compelling comprehensiveness of the life-and-death story it tells." --National Jewish Post & Opinion
"A must read! -- how mistreatment of animals leads to the dehumanization and extermination of people as 'mere animals.' Well-written and respectful of both Judaism and the Holocaust." --Rabbi Yonassan Gershom
"There are good books...entertaining, useful, informative; great books...whose message reveals a fundamental truth previously unknown or overlooked; and important books...that can save lives and ameliorate suffering: Eternal Treblinka is all three." --Satya Magazine, New York City.
"The moral challenge posed by Eternal Treblinka turns it into a must for anyone who seeks to delve into the universal lesson of the Holocaust." --Maariv (Israeli newspaper)
"Important and timely...written with great sensitivity and compassion. I hope that Eternal Treblinka will be widely read." --Martyrdom and Resistance (Holocaust publication)
"It is seldom that such a comprehensive work of scholarship springs from a heart of compassion in the service of a noble and necessary idea. All the ingredients of your thesis--that the oppression of animals serves as the model for all other forms of oppression--have been available to thinking people for generations, but it remained for you to pull them together." --Helen Weaver, author of The Daisy Sutra
"I urge you to read Eternal Treblinka and think deeply about its important message. " --Dr. Jane Goodall
"Powerful, moving, gut-wrenching, brilliant--destined to be a classic" --Aviva Cantor, journalist and author
"You must read this carefully documented book" --La Stampa (Italian national newspaper)
"...promises to be one of the most influential books of the 21st century." --Dr. Karen Davis, United Poultry Concerns
"It grips like a thriller." --The Freethinker (UK)
"This book is going to change the world."
