JEAN AMÉRY was born in Vienna in 1912 as Hans Maier. As a young man, he trained as a bookseller and attended lectures on philosophy and literature. In the mid 1930s he edited a literary journal and wrote his first novel. When the Nazis came to power in Austria in 1938, he fled to Belgium and joined the resistance there. He was caught distributing leaflets and was tortured and sent to Auschwitz. He survived Auschwitz and after the war made his home in Brussels, changing his name to Jean Améry. His most famous works available in English include At the Mind's Limits, On Aging, and On Suicide. Lars Fischer is a professional translator.
