"A shocking, profoundly moving, and morally challenging story... nothing short of miraculous. It will haunt you, it will help to complete you..." - Augusten Burroughs. New York Times bestselling author of a Wolf at the Table and Running with Scissors

The Jewish Roundup






These are real pictures that show the kinds of things the Jewish people had to endure. I put these pictures up because I think by seeing what the actual setting of the event looks like it helps me understand the setting of the novel and what it would look like to be a Jew in that time of the world. The first picture is showing that all the Jewish men were taken away from their families and guarded by the police. The second picture is when all the Jewish people were first taken from their homes and are all waiting around to be taken to their next location. The third picture isn't a real picture from the Holocaust but it shows 3 young Jewish boys who are trapped in their prison and are praying to get out (alive).  The third shows the women and children of the Holocaust and how they were absolutely terrified and confused. All of these pictures resemble the part of the novel I'm at so far because they are still being taken from their homes and sitting around waiting to hear what exactly is going to be happening to them.
