About Hermann Goering's brother, whose type of soul we find in every generation or culture. He slips through, is unimportant.
The writer tries to break the boundary of time, personality and country by dipping right into what makes us move. Being human we cannot escape racism, homophobia or our own mortality and Hitler.
How much of what happened in the 2nd world war is still relevant to today's society? The Holocaust is seen as institutionalized racism and/or mass insanity''....So it is said in K. Cornishes's book. That people did not see a depth in Hitler and that he ' was mistakenly thought to lack intellectual depth''. (p3).
Whereas Hitler believed he had a cause, a way forward, it is clear that his own identity issues were the cause for the atrocities done to so many people. The author tries to run parallels between her own inner emotional state to portray the problem of identity loss and identity claim on a national or individual level.
Two people living in England in 2008, Albert and Dexter. They have a kinship with Richarda, who is originally from Portugal. While their love life is turbulent and edgy, it is Richarda who can understand them. Characters meet one day at a Konzentration Camp and pull their strings and emotions together. While Ahmadinajad speaks at the UN racism conference about his problems, Israel still fights on all corners. Obama on the other hand is wanting all nations to arm down, Europe is getting closer and closer. The recession has become part of everyday life.
Dead souls and living souls are connected through history. The world being one place, it is a challenge to try and connect the past and the future. We cannot quite know how much we have to go through within our personality in every day life. Good acts and bad acts are the basis. What is the difference between Albert Goering and Hitler? In the eternal part of our existence how are their deeds stored?
