In a narrative reminiscent of the great Primo Levi, Soros views his experiences with a beguiling humour, deep humanity and a wisdom that is humbling. 'Maskerado' is a unique testament of the Holocaust - of how one man managed not only to escape, but to retain his integrity, compassion, family unity and humour by "dancing around death".
