Chapter 5 comments and thoughts

In this chapter, I learn that Bruno's father is now working as a commandant with superior powers as Bruno himself is intimidated by his own father. He seem to prioritise his work more than his family as he listen but did not try to understand Bruno's frustrations. Bruno's father also has an obvious distaste towards people who he deemed as inferior such as the people in the concentration camp when he said "Those people... well, they're not people at all, Bruno."Saying "Heil Hitler" instead of goodbye to his son, Bruno, even though Bruno has no idea what it means also indicates that Bruno's father is forcefully implementing and spreading the Nazi propaganda which shows how influential the Fuhrer is in his life.
