ladies and Gentlemen, to the Gas Chamber

December 9, 2010 by caren.ng

It is a massacre, the most horrible and ruthless, inhumane event in history. Borowski captures the very essence of this event, his time at the camps. It shows that morality is meaningless when your life is on the line. In order to save his own life, he follows the orders of the SS-man. Even if he was not a jew, he still suffered consequences that follows him even after the war was over. Mentally he was unable to handle all the things he participated in, because morality and humanity was still lingering inside him and was eating away at his conscience. This war, the holocaust effected everyone in a negative way and there’s no way around it. They were stuck there at the camps unable to have their freedom and the only way for Borowski to survive is to trample on those that are weaker.
