A precious testimony about the persecution of homosexuals by the Nazis For decades, history ignored the Nazi persecution of gay people. Only with the rise of the Gay Movement in the 1970s did historians finally recognize that gay people, like Jews and others deemed „undesireable“, suffered enormously at the hands of the Nazi regime. Of the few gay men who survived the concentration camps, only one ever came forward to tell his story. The Men with the Pink Triangle is his account of those nightmarish years. Providing an important introduction to a long-forgotten chapter of gay history, the book tells the true story of an Austrian man who chose to remain anonymous, because persecution kept continuing when he first broke his silence in 1971. He confided his experiences to the German writer Heinz Heger.
