A German-Jewish refugee suffering personal and political upheaval during the years of Nazi conquest, Hannah Arendt struggled to make sense of her suffering through writing. This book explores the influence of Greek tradgedy on Arendt's political writings.

The book is an against-the-grain study of Primo Levi's lifelong concerns about agency, both personal and political. It moves from fresh readings of his lesser-known short story and novels to a major reinterpretation of the testimonial works at the center of his legacy.
