Un hombre pobre, casi analfabeto que durante seis meses llevó a Levi un plato de sopa cada día para ayudarle a compensar su desnutrición en el Lager. Y no se limitó a ayudarle en sus necesidades más concretas: fue mucho más allá, arriesgando incluso su vida para permitirle comunicarse con su familia. Cuidó de su joven amigo como sólo un padre podría haberlo hecho. La suya fue una amistad extraordinaria que, nacida en el infierno, sobrevivió a la guerra y continuó en Italia hasta la agónica muerte de Lorenzo en 1952, doblegado por el alcohol y la tuberculosis. Primo nunca le olvidó: hablaba a menudo de él y puso a sus hijos nombres en recuerdo de su amigo.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEste libro es la biografía de una de \u003cstrong\u003euna de esas personas que viven sin dejar, aparentemente, huella ni recuerdo\u003c\/strong\u003e de sí mismas.

Lorenzo Perrone, as he was called, is the piece of the puzzle of Primo's biography that we have yet to know: a Piedmontese bricklayer who lived in front of the fence of \u003cstrong\u003eAuschwitz\u003c\/strong\u003e III-Monowitz. A poor, almost illiterate man who for six months brought Levi a bowl of soup every day to help him compensate for his malnutrition in the Lager. And he did not limit himself to helping him with his most concrete needs: he went much further, even risking his life to allow him to communicate with his family. He cared for his young friend as only a father could have. Theirs was an extraordinary friendship that, born in hell, survived the war and continued in Italy until Lorenzo's agonizing death in 1952, bent by alcohol and tuberculosis. Primo never forgot him: he often spoke of him and named his children in memory of his friend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is the biography of\u003cstrong\u003e one of those people who live without, apparently, leaving a trace or memory of themselves\u003c\/strong\u003e.
