"But in the Lager things are different: here the struggle to survive is
without respite, because everyone is desperately and ferociously alone.""Thousands of individuals, differing in age, condition, origin, language, culture and customs, are enclosed within barbed wire: there they live a regular, controlled life which is identical for all and inadequate to all needs..."
This chapter focuses on the individuality of prisoners in the Auschwitz. As mentioned in the quotes above, we can see how indiviuals struggle to survive this camp. They steal things, beat others and rebel, but it seems that they are the one who will make it out of the camps. This puts them in the dilemma. Should they choose to survive physically, or should they keep their morals? I sometimes also feel the same dilemma. If I could cheat, that would definitely raise my grade, but then I am a cheater and I'm not a good student any more. Everyone knows that no one should cheat, but, still, this dilemma is something that everyone experiences.
