Two great interviews this weekend. In the first informed us Joseba yesterday. The second publishes today the country (thanks for the text, Esther) and the main character is Simone Veil, a survivor of Nazi death camps. As for Primo Levi, his experience of liberation also has a bitter aftertaste. Again the victim uncomfortable:
Then we came to France. What had been the Jews, the extermination of most of them, not to arouse any interest. In contrast, my other sister, was deported to Ravensbrück as a member of the Resistance, was praised for his return. He was a hero-which is undeniable, people interested in her, she was questioned about the Resistance, on what had spent in the field. For the people might have been a way of appropriating the Resistance. We? Not even worth that we tried to talk about it: we cut the word! People change the subject. Some, when they saw the tattoo on his arm I still have, said, "Ah, then, is there still Jews?" We believed that everyone had died ...". And for our loved ones was too painful to talk about it all. We had dreadful things they saw in what condition had become, for them was unbearable. And still is, 60 years later. One of my sisters was deported, and when we talk about it, we are alone.
