Die Geschichten von Staszek wurden während eines Besuchs der Gedenkstätte Auschwitz niedergeschrieben, um seine Erlebnisse festzuhalten. Über vier Jahre hinweg fanden Interviews und Diskussionen statt, begleitet von Besuchen an authentischen Orten der Lager und Gesprächen mit ehemaligen Häftlingen. Staszeks gebrochenes Deutsch prägt die Erzählungen.
