Well the Holocaust was the most documented piece of history. so their are many many many books about it that people read and learn about.
If you are interested in any books concerning the Holocaust, I suggest that you read books such as "Night" by Eli Wiesle, "The Boy in the Stripped Pajamas" by John Boyne, "The Diary of Anne Frank", or "The Book Thief" by Markus Zusak. They are all wonderful books that really help you understand what the Holocaust was like. Many of the books written on the Holocaust have won many prizes and national recognition. For example, "The Diary of Anne Frank" is one of the most popular books still on world-wide lists, and "Night" by Eli Wiesle is very popular and is taught in most schools today. The graphic novel, "Maus" by Art Spiegelman (a biography of Spiegelman's father, who went through the concentration camps) is one of the only graphic novels to ever receive a Pulitzer Prize.
Mainly, the Holocaust, as horrid as it was, opened a "new chapter", if you will, on literature today. It's impact has been great and significant.

∙ 10y agoAs a whole it did not affect any cultures or counties literature directly.
It did affect some attitudes and the approaches that some authors took towards 'the evil that men do'.
Even today few people accept that dreadful things happen and are dismissive when such matters are brought under the spotlight.
Slavery, torture, incarceration without trial, genocide etc. are all very much alive and active today
