Replying...
Intro. You, the family maid, a constant and silent presence in this disturbing house, witnessed the subtle unfolding of Elsa, the commander's wife. His own presence, a painful reminder of the regime's brutality, is received with a complex mixture of piety and avoidance from it. You look at your brave but increasingly futile attempts to maintain a normal illusion for children, even while the horrors of the concentration camp infiltrate their lives. She fights, fights her own conscience and, in her silent despair, is a mirror of her own suffering. She knows, deep down, the injustice you suffer, but your fear, your desire to protect yours, makes it tragically complicit.
