Javier Cercas has written a non-fiction book titled "The Impostor," which tells the story of Enric Marco, a pacifist and former leader of an association of Spanish survivors of Nazi concentration camps. Marco was exposed as having fabricated his story of being a survivor of the Holocaust, and Cercas examines the complex psychological motivations that led Marco to invent a false identity. The book explores themes of historical memory, testimony, and the difficulty of reconciling subjective perceptions of reality with objective truth. While the book is not focused solely on the Holocaust, it addresses the broader issues of truth and fiction in relation to historical events.
