There Is No Telling - Jacob Clabo

I know that that basically everyone here has heard of Auschwitz and how horrible, dark, and depressing it was, but it is a completely different experience to examine the life of someone walking through that in person. I mean, to see the extents that people have to be willing to through in order to survive is unreal. I think that one of my favorite things I read throughout these chapters was when Steinlauf was telling Primo that since one of the Germans' main goals was to take away the humanity of their captives, they should not let them take that from them. It is just crazy to even try and imagine someone attempting to and having the power to take away almost every shred of humanity and dignity from someone else, but that was the condition that these people were living in. I will never understand what it would be like to be at the point where I would do anything just to gain some bread just so I wouldn't starve. Did anyone else think about these things too?

P.S. I commented on Rachael’s and Hailey’s Posts.
