Mr. K. discusses details of camp life, including the hierarchy; believing he would not survive, but at the same time, not losing hope; discussions in camp noting no one would ever believe their experiences if they survived; not sharing his experiences, particularly with his son; a recent visit to Auschwitz/Birkenau; recurring nightmares; and his continuing sense of belonging in Germany.
