The Boy in the Striped PJs - a noticing
In chapter 5, Bruno asks Father who the people outside his window are, with the response of, "Soldiers, Bruno. And secretaries....." Then Bruno says, " No, not them. The people I see from my window." And then Father's response, "Ah, those people, those people......well, they're not people at all, Bruno." This quote shows who Father really is - not the stern, serious father (as Bruno sees him), but an evil MONSTER who is obviously a Nazi. He just told Bruno that Jews aren't people! I have only read 5 chapters of this book, and so far, Father has not impressed me.

I agree he is selfless to the Jews who are people too. He should treat them like people. Later on he also says ''Heil Hitler'' which proves he is a Nazi.
ReplyDeleteYeah. Poor Bruno. He thinks "Heil Hitler" means goodbye for now and have a pleasant afternoon.
