Jorge Semprún (1923) lived out his adolescence between two wars, the Spanish Civil War and World War II. Convinced that Hitler’s defeat would lead to Franco’s fall, this grandson of Prime Minister Antonio Maura, and Minister of Culture between 1988 and 1991, joined the French Resistance, and at 19 years of age was imprisoned in the Buchenwald death camp. His experience there was recounted in The Long Journey (El largo viaje), the best testimony by a Spaniard of the Nazi extermination program.
