The Joy Divisions, appearing in Ka-tzetnik 135633's 1955 novel, The House of Dolls, describes a group of Jewish women in the concentration camps during World War II who were kept for the sexual pleasure of Nazi soldiers.
In the book, the barracks in which the women were kept were located in distant locations within existing concentration camps, usually close to the front lines. Troops on their way to the front spent a day drinking and molesting the women. If they were not 'pleased' with their prisoner, they could have had her killed. These female prisoners were better fed than other prisoners of the camp, and were enslaved until they died. Some suffered horrid "medical" experiments on their bodies.
The origin of Ka-tzetnik's book is not clear. Some say it is based on a diary kept by a young Jewish girl who was captured in Poland when she was fourteen years old and subjected to enforced prostitution in a Nazi labour camp. However the diary is not trackable. Others claim that it is based on the actual history of his younger sister ("The House of Dolls" is about the sister of Ka-Tzetnik's protagonist, Harry Frelshnik).
