Book Report On Malka Baran
Malka Baran is a Jewish Holocaust survivor. Once Malka began speaking about her childhood, my first impressions were that she was a happy child before the Holocaust. She seemed to be more of the lower class in that society. She mentioned that they got to see free movies because her father worked at the ticket booth so she was not deprived. Most of her life before the Holocaust consisted of the Jewish religion. Malka had a similar life as Eliezer. For example, they both had a maid and lived in a Jewish community. Eliezer’s and Malka’s fathers both were killed during the Holocaust. Malka’s father was very religious like Eliezer’s father. Eliezer and Malka were both twelve when the Nazi Germans began to enter their cities. Both of them also had

    “Wilkomirski has conducted virtually no serious research into his past in Switzerland--- which is indeed amazing in light of his claim of an exchange of children on Swiss soil” (*author’s last name267). Everyone has a rough sense of what happened during the Holocaust. From a normal reader’s perspective, the most interesting parts of the book are the details of life and mental activity of the survivor during the Holocaust period. However, Wilkomirski didn't give us reliable facts, and he does not even have basic research, which hurts the reader’s feelings significantly and lowers the value of the…

    In this article, Rula Quawas examines how the North and South despite their differences agree on one issue; a woman’s place. Quawes sees this issue as a cult like belief. She compounded ideas of what a man would think true womanhood consisted of in the 19th century. A few ideas was that a woman should have an understanding that the home is where she belongs and the economic world is for the man, the home is the only proper sphere for the female, and have knowledge about the functions as a mother and a wife. It is then seen if a woman does not partake in that belief system, she can simply be treated.…

    A little girl of only nine years old would come to see how hard her life would be. The changes the Holocaust brought came rapidly. The first changes come after Hitler broke the pact with Russia in 1941. The first change was Buczacz was taken over by Russia. The next big change was the government started bringing down religious icons. The communist party then started removing enemies of the Soviet Union. The Jurman Family was considered bourgeois. They were considered bourgeois because Alicia’s uncle was a doctor. Alicia and her family were not prepared for the horrible road that would come next. Without survivors like Alicia Appleman-Jurman, we would not have the first hand awareness of the Holocaust they have today.…

    I read the book Nineteen Minutes by Jodi Picoult. The story begins in a small town in Sterling, New Hampshire. At the high school, you read about a routine day of students in classes. As a student runs out of class to leave for an orthodontist appointment a loud bang goes off in the parking lot, which turns out to be a bomb set off in Matt's car. The students are confused by the noise and gun shots are fired. Patrick, the only detective on the Sterling police force (which is just stupid to have only one), hears on his radio about the shooting at Sterling High School. Patrick sees several students on the floor, surrounded in blood. The boy is dead and has a gunshot in his head while his girlfriend, Josie wakes up and cant…
