That the author was truly scared, normally you would stand up for your family and protect them. Instead he stood and watched as his father fell from just one slap which made him realize, that place has already changed him so much in only a few days.]]> 2021-12-09 01:22:30 UTC https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1937113418 Page 29 and 46 Misc 15 pipercutri https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1937114198 At the beginning of the chapter they had to place the little of their belongings they had left in a wagon along with there final illusions, and the family was still together.

At the end of the chapter they were at a new camp called "Buna" where as they walked in Iron gates closed behind them locking them in. (Page 46) "After 4 hours, we arrived at the new camp: Buna.

He said this 6 times in a row. Was his point to say hes traumatized and these things were graved into his brain, or to clarify he didn't want to forget what this word can get away with. I believe he wanted his audience to realize it was all of i but then i sit there and think what if that's just how I took it.. What if he was truly just scared and thought he'd never forget.]]> 2021-12-09 01:23:31 UTC https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1937114916 Chapter 4 Discussion pipercutri https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1938736112 1.)

My curse on Germany! My curse! MY--" you may wonder how this is literary its literary because it is the author persuasion. The author feels that Jews had to witness each other be killed in many ways yet Germans and other don't so he wants to "curse" them for the sins they are committing and getting away with. That is how I see it anyways.]]> 2021-12-10 01:24:01 UTC https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1939436847 Page 54 Quotes 6 Personality & Explanation pipercutri https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1939445780 "Idek was on edge, he had trouble restraining himself. Suddenly he exploded. The victim this time was my father." The personality is he was a young boy who grew up living this way and now that hes older this is his normal. So he can get irritated easy when people don't do as there told and lashes out easier then he should or would previously which is what the author was probably thinking. ]]> 2021-12-10 01:29:31 UTC https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1939445780 Page 82 I believe Reactions 24 pipercutri https://padlet.com/pipercutri/i8w3qmki84nkffdv/wish/1941202625 I believe that Eliezer would've been happy if he would have stayed at the infirmary because on page 83 the author states" After the war, I learned the fate of those who had remained in the infirmary. They were, quite simply, liberated by Russians, two days after the evacuation."
