From 80 to 103 made this book a classic for me. He talks about provisional experience and how the effort to see a future for yourself is extremely for your mental hygiene. Prisoners, Wardens(who were sometimes prisoners themselves), and commanders were complex. Acts of kindness came from unexpected places for Frankel. He takes about that after liberation prisoners psyches were terrible. Compared it getting the bends

It’s still depressing but he just got freed from Auschwitz. Now’s he’s making larger claims about his time there and it’s getting more interesting. But he did a good job depicting just how cruel and depraved his time at the camp was, and added an informative example of how other inmates can go crazy or shift their entire personality under great subjugation.
