The Periodic Table is largely a memoir of the years before and after Primo Levi’s transportation from his native Italy to Auschwitz as an anti-Facist partisan and a Jew.

It recounts, in clear, precise, unfailingly beautiful prose, the story of the Piedmontese Jewish community from which Levi came, of his years as a student and young chemist at the inception of the Second World War, and of his investigations into the nature of the material world. As such, it provides crucial links and backgrounds, both personal and intellectual, in the tremendous project of remembrance that is Levi’s gift to posterity. But far from being a prologue to his experience of the Holocaust, Levi’s masterpiece represents his most impassioned response to the events that engulfed him.

The Periodic Table celebrates the pleasures of love and friendship and the search for meaning, and stands as a monument to those things in us that are capable of resisting and enduring in the face of tyranny.

Thayer大佬给我推荐的书。原书是用意大利语写的，不知道是翻译的问题还是怎样，一开始几章挺无聊的，差点弃读。一直到”磷”那一章，讲二战初始犹太人在意大利社会立足的无奈与艰辛，才觉得这书还是很神的。从那以后每一章，时而悲壮，时而有趣。就像Levi在最后一章说的，这不是一本化学书，而是一本历史书。一本化学家和犹太人的历史。

文笔这么好思想这么深邃还做了一辈子本行，莱维对化学是真爱啊。。。太令人自卑了唉
