Chapter 1
Introduction to family and setting
"One afternoon when Bruno came home, he was surprised to find Maria, the family's maid- who always kept her head bowed and never looked up from the carpet - standing in his bedroom, pulling all his belongings out of the wardrobe and packing them in four large wooden crates [....]"
Slide 10 - Tekstslide
"his mother had always told him to treat Maria respectfully and not just imitate the way Father spoke to her. "
What does this tell you?
Slide 11 - Tekstslide
What do we learn about the mother from these sentences:
"Bruno's mother had just appeared. She was a tall woman with long red hear that she bundled into a sort of net behind her head, and she was twisting her hands together nervously"
"she couldn't have applied her make-up correctly that morning because the rims of her eyes were more red than usual"
Slide 12 - Tekstslide
What do we learn about the move?
Bruno asks his mother: "Am I being sent away?" "No, not just you" she said, looking as if she might smile for a moment but thinking better of it. 'We all are, Your father and I, Gretel and you. All four of us"
Slide 13 - Tekstslide
Did you notice?
"''Come downstairs with me' said mother, leading the way towards the dining room where the Fury had been to dinner the week before."
"because there were always so many visitors to the house - men in fantastic uniforms, women with typewriters, that he had to keep his mucky hands off - and they were always very polite to Father and told each other that he was a man to watch and the Fury had big things in mind for him".
