Schindler's Ark tells the now-famous story of the Oskar Schindler, who for a brief period in an otherwise undistinguished life became a hero and a saviour. In the shadow of Auschwitz, a flamboyant German industrialist grew into a living legend to the Jews of Cracow. He was a womaniser, a heavy drinker and a bon viveur, but to them he became a saviour. This is the extraordinary story of Oskar Schindler, who risked his life to protect Jews in Nazi-occupied Poland and who was transformed by the war into a man with a mission, a compassionate angel of mercy.

The work that won celebrated author Thomas Keneally the Booker Prize in 1982, as well as inspiring the Academy Award-winning Steven Spielberg film Schindler’s List.
