«Il pianista. Varsavia 1939-1945. La straordinaria storia di un sopravvissuto» is the autobiographical account of Wladyslaw Szpilman.
In September 1939, Wladyslaw Szpilman was playing a Chopin nocturne on Warsaw radio when German bombing silenced the station. Confined with his family in the ghetto, the pianist witnesses the deaths of those around him and the destruction of his city; the narrative follows his struggle to survive.
The Italian-language edition, in paperback, was published in July 2003. The book falls under the category of history.
For readers interested in testimonies of the Nazi occupation, life in the Warsaw Ghetto, and Polish history in the twentieth century.
Władysław Szpilman was a Polish Jewish pianist, classical composer and Holocaust survivor. Szpilman is widely known as the central figure in the Roman Polanski film The Pianist, which was based on his autobiographical account of how he survived the German occupation of Warsaw and the Warsaw Uprising.
