The Book Thief Pages 138-142
As short as this section is, it was defiantly the most interesting. Why are we suddenly switching to a new scene. If the author if so confident that he knows, why doesn't he just tell us like he has with other bits of the story? Ah, but he has. If the author had switched to a new scene, it must have been important, right? It stated that the character focused on was a Jew. A jewish fist fighter, perhaps? Death states in the beginning that there will be a jewish fist fighter included in the story, might it be him?
What was that voice speaking to him? I hope we will find out later. And what is the key's purpose in this story? is it to free him from his "prison"? To discover something that will help him? The very ending was very shocking. ", he knew the man's name. Hans Huberman."
I don't even know were to start with that, but once again I hope it will all be explained.
I was confused about the Author too. Very great insight with Max. I though your thoughts were thougthful :).
