Klos: Hronika o konclogoru Klos u Albaniji 1941-1942

Vlado Vujović-Gavroš

Klos is a harrowing chronicle by Vlado Vujović about the fates of prisoners in the infamous Italian concentration camp Klos in Albania during World War II (1941–1942).

The book Klos: Chronicle of the Klos Concentration Camp in Albania 1941-1942 by Vlado Vujović Gavroš is an exceptional testimony to one of the dark and often overlooked chapters of the Second World War. Through a powerful literary and historical expression, the author reconstructs the authentic atmosphere of the fascist concentration camp in Klos, where numerous Yugoslav, Montenegrin and other anti-fascists and exiles found themselves.

The work is not just a dry historical record, but a profound psychological and human drama that, through a gallery of distinctive characters, brings to life the suffering, resistance, solidarity and indestructible spirit of the camp inmates. Vujović, himself a witness of that time, writes from the position of a “noble memory-taker”, trying to snatch from oblivion people and events that have been suppressed from official historiography for years. This chronicle serves as a permanent reminder of the horrors of fascism, but also as a valuable document about human dignity preserved in the most extreme living conditions.
