The constant sound of a train rattling along the railway tracks across Europe, a train that brought order to time, but also became an instrument that enabled the effectiveness of evil, from the transportation of troops to the battlefields in the First World War to the perfect organization of compositions whose final destinations were Auschwitz, Treblinka , Sobibór, is the leitmotif of Filip David's masterpiece House of Remembrance and Forgetting.

The main character of the novel Albert Weiss is one of the survivors, one of those who remained to testify, but his guilt for not finding his younger brother when their parents saved them from the train that was taking them to death haunts him all his life, as well as the question that exists since man: why is evil so powerful and is it the predominant element in our world? Albert Weiss spent his whole life searching for the answer to what he should have done that winter night. Should he remember or forget, should he give up the search or continue to look for the causes of evil, will he become someone else or remain as he is?
