The black granddaughter of a notorious Nazi concentration camp killer has penned a searing memoir about how he would have killed her because of her race.
Jennifer Teege, a German-Nigerian author, was shocked to discover that her grandfather was Amon Goeth, commandant of the Plaszow concentration camp during the Second World War, who was played by Ralph Fiennes in Schindler’s List.
Her book, Amon: My Grandfather Would Have Shot Me, documents her torment over the link with her bloodthirsty relative who would have regarded her as ‘subhuman’.
Goeth was a sadist who revelled in the misery of inmates at the camp in Nazi-occupied Poland – in the film Fiennes portrays him shooting at prisoners on their way to forced labour just for fun, while he also drank wine while watching guard dogs tear people to pieces.
Ms Teege, 43, is the daughter of a Nigerian student and the German daughter of Goeth, who was hanged for war crimes in 1946 but went to his death declaring his loyalty to the Nazi cause.
