Alon Penzel’s Testimonies Without Boundaries compiles exclusive, unfiltered testimonies from the people who were there: survivors of the kibbutzim and the Nova festival, recovery and rescue forces, medical professionals, and forensic teams. The project was built to meet an evidentiary bar most commemorations do not attempt — every account verified, every source identified, every testimony preserved in the words of the person who gave it.
The book is a bestseller in nine countries and is available in seven languages. Mitzpe Press publishes the new edition as the fourth title in its launch catalog. It is a historical record before it is anything else. The horror is in the detail, and the detail is in the voices. Testimonies Without Boundaries refuses the distance that abstract language imposes on atrocity.
