This passage from the book plays a vital role in the overall novel, as it shows the reader the life of Nunga’s, for the first time, and how they interact with each other and with Gary ‘Blacky’ Black, a Goonya and how the intimidation of the different race makes Blacky feel unwelcome. It is in this scene that Blacky realizes the unethical racism surrounding him and his lifestyle and how corrupt it has become.

And through the first person narrative that the reader can feel the emotions and peace the surrounds Blacky when looking at Dumby Red. This passage provides a very significant view on the relationship between Gary ‘Blacky’ Black and the other Nungas.…

    A corruption of the faithful, an exploitation of the angelic, a destruction of the young, blanketed the earth in the fall of 1941. The gift of innocence, so blameless and pure, but at the presence of absence, eradicates life. The righteous and the sinful, the just and the unjust, produced social barriers of uncertainty. In Under a Cruel Star, Heda Kovály writes of a world filled fear and deception, of stolen innocence, flowers afraid to grow, and faith hidden in a shy little bird. Along with millions of jews, Heda’s life in Prague shook upside when the mass deportation began. The trains that carried her, had no remorse. The Nazis that took her, had…

I maintain, from my experiences in the real world and from the book, that the concepts of good and evil do not necessarily have the same face, but good and evil people will certainly look the same as any other person. When evil crosses the path of the truly righteous, they will be proven righteous, and the same is true for the evil.…
