"Nadjari's desire for revenge stands out - that's different from the other accounts. And he pays much attention to his family. For example, he specifies who he wants to receive his dead sister's piano."

Nadjari witnessed a desperate revolt by Sonderkommando members, led by captured Soviet soldiers, who tried to blow up at least some of the five crematoria, using stolen gunpowder.
The Nazis crushed them - and Nadjari was not among the mutineers, so he survived.
About 110 Sonderkommando members survived Auschwitz-Birkenau, most of them Polish Jews. In most cases they were desperate to forget these horrors - few wrote about their ordeal

The Sonderkommandos were a tough bunch in their own right. Here's a cheerful flick I managed to watch....once. :
