Author Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz’s Book, “Madness of The XX Century: A Testimony,” Recounts the Horrors, the Degradation, and Despair in WW II Concentration Camps


New York, NY, April 19, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz has completed his new book, “Madness of The XX Century: A Testimony”: a poignant work that tells of the author’s deep faith in God and how total strangers stepped up and helped him survive this madness.

Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz was just 20 years old, engaged as a tutor in the Polish Underground School of the Tarnow area, when he was apprehended by the Gestapo. Mercilessly tortured for days, he refused to give the Germans any useful information and nearly died protecting his comrades. After months of imprisonment and recovery from his torture, young Zbigniew was transferred to the first of five concentration camps—Auschwitz. After this, on to Birkenau, then Buchenwald, and Mittelbau (DORA), and finally, Bergen-Belsen.

Author Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz was born into wealthy Polish nobility on August 19, 1922, in Stolin, Poland (now Belarus). His life of privilege began to unravel in 1930 when his father died and stopped altogether when his mother died in 1932. Orphaned at the age of ten, he was taken in by an uncle and his wife to a farm 100 miles south in what is now Ukraine. He had just begun his final year of secondary school in 1939 when World War II broke out. The family of three escaped the Soviet incursion by finding shelter in south-central Poland. It is there, in the spring of 1943, the author’s two-year ordeal began with his capture by the Nazis Gestapo.

After being liberated by the British in 1945, Mr. Haszlakiewicz remained in Germany, married, started a family, and earned a degree in Urban Planning from the Braunschweig Polytechnic. In 1951, the family of three emigrated to the U.S. and settled in Chicago, Illinois, where he had a successful career as a structural engineer. After retiring to Florida in 1987, family and friends convinced him to write down what he experienced in the Nazis concentration camps. The original edition of “Madness of the XX Century” was self-published in 1998. Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz died in 2009. He was 86 years old.

Author Zbigniew Marian Haszlakiewicz writes, “For centuries, my family lived in the eastern territories of the Polish Commonwealth. They survived many disasters, wars, invasions, rebellions, and over one hundred years of methodical Russification efforts by the Russian czarist regime. After the First World War and after the Polish victory over Lenin’s Red Army in 1920, only a part of these territories were included within the borders of the Republic of Poland. A modern Polish state was developing for nineteen years. Despite some friction between ethnic groups (Polish, Ukrainian, Jewish, Byelorussian, German, etc.), life in Poland was peaceful and pleasant compared to what was going on in those days in Germany and, in particular, across the eastern border—in the Soviet Union. The turmoil by both big neighbors of Poland was the prelude to an aggression. In September 1939, the Hakenkreuz from the west and the hammer and sickle from the east started rolling. Poland was overrun and occupied: the western half by Nazi Germany and the eastern half by Soviet Russia.”

Two new consciousness‑style paperbacks on Amazon

Two new consciousness‑style paperbacks on Amazon, Author Ruby Dosanjh has released, expanding a growing body of atmospheric, introspective fiction. The titles — Likewise and Otherwise — explore the quiet emotional shifts that happen between two people who are paying attention.

The first release, Likewise, is a story about subtlety and mirrored feeling. It follows the second meeting that changes the first, the presence that fits too perfectly, and the kind of recognition that arrives without language. Described as “a quiet echo,” the book offers a soft, atmospheric experience for readers who sense emotional shifts before they can name them. Some connections linger — not because they’re forced to, but because they belong.

The second paperback, Otherwise, moves into deeper territory. It traces the moment reflection becomes truth, when two people think of each other without stopping and without softening it into something smaller. What begins as quiet awareness grows into something unmistakable — familiar, unsettling, and impossible to ignore. Otherwise follows the slow, honest shift from noticing to knowing, and the quiet courage it takes to stop pretending nothing is happening.

Together, the releases mark a clear evolution in Ruby Dosanjh’s one‑word consciousness series — stories that move gently, speak quietly, and leave a lasting imprint. Both paperbacks are now available worldwide on Amazon.

How To Read People Like A Book Enters Competitive Body Language Genre

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk

Sebastian Clark has released "How To Read People Like A Book: The Subtle Art of How to Analyze People and Speed-Reading to decode Body Language, Intentions, Thoughts, Emotions, Behaviors, and Connect Effortlessly!", first published in 2022, according to an announcement received by Studio CarryOnHarry.

The book lands in a crowded shelf of nonverbal-communication guides. Its own marketing places it alongside Allan and Barbara Pease’s "The Definitive Book of Body Language," Joe Navarro’s "What Every BODY is Saying," and Thomas Erikson’s "Surrounded by Idiots" — three long-running titles that have anchored the popular body-language genre for years. Clark’s book positions itself as a newer entry covering similar ground: understanding facial expressions, gestures, posture, and vocal tone to reveal someone’s actual thoughts.

According to the announcement, the book walks through strategies applicable across various contexts including professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections — with the stated aim of helping readers spot emotions and intentions that go unspoken. Listed topics include facial expression and gesture analysis, context-specific body language decoding, interpreting non-verbal communication, reading vocal cues for emotional undertone, and trusting intuitive reads of subtle signals. The work is categorized within social science studies.

No further biographical detail on Clark accompanied the announcement, and independent listings for the title largely repeat the same publisher description rather than adding new information about the author or the book’s reception since 2022.

Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective

At Studio CarryOnHarry, we’re interested in whether books like Clark’s deliver on their practical promise. The appeal of body-language guides lies less in theory and more in real-world application—the job interview where you’re trying to gauge whether the hiring manager is genuinely interested, the first date where mixed signals leave you uncertain, the negotiation where knowing if the other party is bluffing matters financially. Clark’s positioning across "professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections" suggests he’s aware readers want transferable skills, not just academic frameworks. The question worth asking: does his approach to vocal cues, facial analysis, and contextual interpretation actually equip readers to make better decisions in these high-stakes moments? Or does it risk reinforcing the confidence-without-accuracy trap that plagues intuitive people-reading? For readers considering this purchase, the gap between what body language can reliably tell us and what we wish it could tell us deserves scrutiny.
