I continued read the last chapter ( Honey cake ) .Actually what happen is the life condition became worse specially for the Jewish families because the Nazis plan to round up Denmark Jews. The Rosh Hashanah (New Jewish year) was awful , All the Jews were prepare to escape . David and his parents travelled without Rachel ! She stayed their for the Denmark freedom . At least he have gotten his dream small train from Elsa's father .After that They were hid inside the boat so the German didn't notice them at all. Finally the horrible journey finished when they arrived to Sweden , David sent letter for Elsa and she answered him . They missed each other so much !
I don't like the end of the story , it was very boring ! and the writer didn't mention any thing about Rachel , or what the Nazis do . He just focused in the emotional side of the story and the event ignored some Historical details like why the German hate the Jews ? What happen after that for the Denmark ? Did David family back to their country ? . It looks like an opened end !

It seems a good book. I think it's worth reading. After I read your summary,I also want to read the book.Generally speaking, an open end is quite good.It can let reader imagine themselves.
ReplyDeleteHow are you? I am like you. I don’t like any movie or story has opened end. However, there are many writers prefer this kind of ends because they need the audiences to keep thinking. Also, they need that every has audiences different end in his mind. What do you think, What is the best end for this story.
ReplyDeleteI think that the questions you ask are really important, so the book sparked interest for you. Maybe that's the goal of the writer, to get the reader to look further about this topic. Asking why the Germans hated the Jews is a huge question that doesn't have just one answer. I think that asking these kinds of questions will help people prevent this kind of situation from happening again. (sadly, it has happened again in other countries)
