First sentence: It began in mid-March 1966, when Jean-Francois Steiner, then an unknown young man of twenty-eight, gave an interview to Le Nouveau Candide, a glossy, Gaullist magazine for which he had written as a journalist before cocooning himself away for a year and a half to emerge as the precocious author of Treblinka: The Revolt of an Extermination Camp.
