Assignment 2

What that chapter was about was that Adam Posner was ready to leave his work, but then when he went to the elevator the elevator got jammed. His deepest secrets were coming out. It showed that he was afraid of the dark and is claustrophobic. He started panicking because he could not get out, and on top of that he started hearing voices and made him get out even more. He remembered when he was young that he was so scared of the dark when he would go to the theatre and he would have to go to the exit sign because there was a little bit of light. He started remembering when he was being forced into the Cattle Car Complex to take them into the concentration camp. The man that was trying to help him out of the elevator was being attacked by words by Posner telling him he is a Nazi .

I believe he does this because he wants the Jews to be informed that they suffered so much, and he does not want them to forget what had happen in those years.
