“Jankiel’s not hiding from the men in the car,” says Dodie. “He’s hiding from the torture squad.”
I turn and run down the steps. Halfway down I crash into a kid coming up. As I scramble over him, I see his face. He’s older than he was, but I still recognize him. Wiktor Radzyn, one of the Catholic kids from my class when I went to school here.
I don’t stop.
I keep running.
“Clear off, Jew!” yells Wiktor behind me. “This is our house now.”
Please, Mum and Dad, I beg silently.
Don’t be like these people.
Don’t put up a struggle.

I feel really sorry for her. It’s really hard being an orphan if you haven’t got an imagination.
If Zelda’s dad’s a Nazi, does she deserve carrot soup and aspirin?
Yes.
She can’t help what her father did. Plus he’s dead now and so’s her mum and I don’t know if she’s got any other living relatives but after what we’ve been through together that makes me one and I say yes.
