Long Answer
1. The novel is in a first-person narration style, with Yanek as the narrator. This narration style is more intimate (than third person), as readers feel that they are witnessing firsthand the atrocities of the Nazi German regime as they accompany Yanek on his journeys through the concentration camps. (Various chapters)
2. In chronological order: Plaszów, the Wieliczka Salt Mine, Trzebinia, Birkenau, Auschwitz, Sachsenhausen, Bergen-Belsen, Buchenwald, Gross-Rosen, and Dachau. Yanek focuses both on his own survival in the day-to-day, as well as the future and not giving up. (Various chapters)
