Arguably, if the subject is handled with historical accuracy and the tortures and deaths are neither ridiculed nor over-dramatized as to appeal to sadists. Certainly this is no subject for comedy. A better idea would be historical round-table or omnibus dicussions where a group of survivors would compare notes, so to speak and flesh out the details=- this has been done with many historical subjects as diverse as the Titanic disaster and the Battle of the Bulge- why not a Holocaust Omnibus- Maybe, just maybe there might be too many conflicting tales.. Aha! [Survivors from the Titanic? How many are there?]

In principle there is no objection. However, Holocaust fiction is very hard to write well and needs a lot of research. The danger is that it may either trivialize or sensationalize the Holocaust.
