Summary of Simon Wiesenthal's The Sunflower

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.

#1 I was standing on the parade ground, where the prisoners were mustering for the roll call. I had not fetched my coffee as I did not want to force my way through the crowd. My thoughts were not on the dangers lurking on such occasions, but on last night’s talk.

#2 The people in the Ghetto had information that the people in the camp did not have. They were able to piece together bits of information from the scanty reports of those who worked outside during the day and overheard what the Poles and Ukrainians were talking about.

#3 The author’s bunkmate, Arthur, was vexed by Josek’s story about the angels at the creation of man, and he interrupted Josek to say that he was prepared to believe that God created a Jew out of a tear-soaked clod of earth, but he did not believe that God also made the camp commandant out of the same material.

#4 I had known Arthur for years, since I was a young architect. We were like brothers, he a lawyer and writer with a perpetual ironic smile around the corners of his mouth, while I had become resigned to the fact that I would never again build houses in which people would live in freedom and happiness.
