I was honestly shocked when I read this portion of the book. It is almost like a different author is writing this part, because it is written completely different. I can’t really say that I loved the first part, however, I do think that it had significantly more of a plot. The beginning of this novel, although really odd, was undoubtedly thought-provoking. The second part of the novel seems much more serious, far less whimsical, and almost entirely different that the first part of the story. I had a feeling that something was going to be related to the Nazi party in this book just because of the time period that it took place and the place in which the book took place. I can’t say that I necessarily feel bad for Hannah, after all anybody who was engaged in the Nazi party was certainly at some fault during their military career, but I do not think that it’s fair that she get all of the blame in the war trial. I think that, in the end, she will get all of the blame, because of the fact that she cannot read and she is too stubborn to admit this. It’s amazing to me that someone would rather take the fall for other people for a crime that they did not personally commit, although in no way shape or form is Hannah innocent, rather than show any weakness. I think that perfectly represents who Hannah is as a person, entirely focused on her image and loving to be in a place of power.
