In chapter 13, Yannick takes a trip to the salt mine. As he gets out of the elevator, he takes a second to realize the true beauty of the statues in the salt mine. The next day, he is getting tired swinging and swinging the pickaxe. Soon, he sees a body on the floor covered in salt. He soon finds out that's the June rot that rated the house and took his mother's ring.

Yannick's Literal Journey

When the train arrives at Birkenau, Yanek can smell burning flesh in the air. The train sits for hours before the prisoners are let out. Yanek feels as though this is another form of torture, to drive them to panic or madness. Finally, the door opens and the prisoners are marched toward a big brick building with chimneys. Yanek thinks about how much he’s done, how much he's already survived, only to have it taken all away by the Nazis. He begins to cry, wishing that he had let the Nazis kill him back in the ghetto.

Yannick's figure to Journey

when he first arrived at the camp they gave him food after that they went to the barracks to go to sleep. They didn't have to work for a full 2 weeks for those two weeks they gave him extra food but the extra food gave them stomach aches and cramps after the 2 weeks were over there was this one guard they called him moon face and he kept pushing Yannick around almost like a schoolyard bully and he was beating him Yannick thought if this cat's going on he might die. In If You Wanted to Leave you had to win a race to prove that you were strong enough to work at a different camp I participated in the race but at the end, he had to act like he wasn't tired because he did not want to look weak

Yanek arrives at Buchenwald and sees that the prisoners are terrified. Yanek carries rocks, learning to carry a stone just the right size—if it is too large and he dropped it, the Nazis would shoot him. If it was too small, they would shoot him for being lazy. Some of the Jews are chained to carts and “whipped like animals” while they haul loads of stones.

Yanek,s literal journey

Yanek and the other prisoners look around the yard, not knowing what to do. Yanek has no home or family to go back to, and no way to get there. He wonders who would be kind to him, a Jew, considering that no one ever stood up for him before he was interned. Yanek realizes that although he and the other prisoners are free, they are still powerless.

Even in freedom, Yanek’s primary concern is the anti-Semitism that has been rampant not only in Germany and by the Nazis, but what he has seen from others. The Nazi regime’s cruelty has radiated outward to influence ordinary civilians, and so the Jewish prisoners are still unsafe regardless of their newfound freedom.

Yanek's figurative journey

The prisoners were then marched to Auschwitz and then assembled in the yard. One Auschwitz prisoner tells them quietly that young people should say that they are 18, in good health, and have a trade. The family in front of Yanek in line, who have just arrived off the train, don’t understand the advice. The Nazi doctor, Josef Mengele interviews the man, who explains that his wife had pneumonia recently and that his son is only nine. Mengele tells the man to go to the right and the woman and boy to go to the left. The woman and boy protest, but soldiers keep them apart.

Yannick's Figurative Journey

The Americans immediately take the survivors away from Dachau. They travel by train to Munich, where the Allies will house them temporarily. When Yanek is shown his new room, he asks how many people he has to share the bunk with. The soldier replies that he’ll have it to himself, which shocks# Yanek. He’s further amazed when the soldier gives him a blanket, a pillow, sheets, a washcloth, a cup, and a toothbrush. Yanek cries as he picks up the toothbrush, remembering the day at the water pump when he’d marveled at the luxury of this simple object. He feels that the Americans are granting him his life back.

Yaneks literal journy

The prisoners are moved once more to a camp called Dachau. Once again, Yanek will be forced to march. It is almost spring, but the ground is still frozen, and Yanek is again grateful that he has shoes. The sides of the road have many corpses. Yanek wonders who else uses the road, and whether they care about the bodies piling up around them. They pass through villages, where Yanek sees many doorways with Nazi flags.
