There’s this question I kept asking myself while reading. At one point I even demanded that he explain this… thing to me.įifteen years later, my second read of this book has impacted me just as much as the first. After all, he hadn’t prepared me for what I found in this book. Mostly I was angry at the world and at humanity as a whole but I unfairly turned some of that on my father. I remember getting really angry when I finished this. For what were my “problems” compared to those of this narrator? How “hard” was my life compared to what he endured? What millions of people similarly endured? I now understood my own insignificance in the grand scheme of things and suddenly the reality of the world was a crushing weight.

But can we, the reader, even understand what happened there? Can modern men and women comprehend that cursed universe? The author, who is actually in the above picture, said it best in the forward “Only those who experienced Auschwitz know what it was.” I think we can all agree with that. My biggest concern was whether or not a boy named Ja But can we, the reader, even understand what happened there? Can modern men and women comprehend that cursed universe? I’m not entirely sure.
