I will answer some questions of a video-interview from the author of "Fateless" Imre Kertész.

1. Before the interview, the presenter visits a monument to the Holocaust created by the American artist Peter Eiserman. Considering the shapes, architecture and general design, in what ways do you think he represents the reality in the concentration camps?
2. Which is the paradox the presenter mentions regarding Imre Kertész and the place where he lives?
3. Refer to antisemitism before and after Auschwitz according to Kertész.
4. In what way do reminders of the past in historical books make us "much richer"?
5. Which metaphor does Imre use to exemplify the effect of FATELESSNESS on its readers?

1- The tall walls, the sense of being capture with no exit and the fear of don´t knowing if you are going to die the next day..
2- The paradox is that Imre feels more confortable in Germany than in any place, and  decades ago Germany wanted to kill him-
3- He says that the antisemitism was present before and after Auschwitz and Hitler. It was a everyday issue.
4- To aknowledge an event that toke place on the past we can use books or "reminders of the past" to make our knowledge of the event "reacher".
5- If we don't know about the Holocaust, it will be like a box in your soul, that eventually will come free and start those atrocities again and again.
