I've read this on the list before, and I've also read what I'm about to
point out on the list before:
One of the most striking aspects of GR is all the time spent in the
Mittelwork in the Harz mountains, and the concentration camp Dora. As far as
the Holocaust goes, I think that a large amount of the text does deal with
the Holocaust. Though I do see where you're going that the narrator(s) don't
explicitly tell us (take us) to any of the Death Camps, such as Auschwitz or
Treblinka.
