1. Before the interview, the presenter visits a monument to the Holocaust created by the American artist Peter Eiserman. Considering the shapes, architecture and general design, in what ways do you think he represents the reality in the concentration camps?
It gives hope, the hope of surviving jews had once in the camps.
2. Which is the paradox the presenter mentions regarding Imre Kertész and the place where he lives?
He feels safer in Berlin somehow, which is the capital of Germany, the country that wanted him dead.
3. Refer to antisemitism before and after Auschwitz according to Kertész.
Once the gas chambers were made in Auschwitz, antisemitists had an easier life while dealing with the jews, it was not a problem anymore since were dying in 2 minutes in an unbeleiveable amount.
4. In what way do reminders of the past in historical books make us "much richer"?We learn from our mistakes, so if we learn from our past we are learning how to deal with our future, that's why we're rich by knowing history.
5. Which metaphor does Imre use to exemplify the effect of Fatelessness on its readers?
he uses the metaphor "it continued to worry our souls and now knocked out of the cabinet".
