Assignment 3 : Cattle Car Complex
This lawyer,Adam Posner, is on his way home musing the empty void his life rings through his job and way of life. Suddenly the elevator he's in gets stuck. He is claustrophobic with a terrible fear of the dark. His parents had unintentionally given him this by having their screams of the Holocaust terrors they lived ring through his ears. So he's there on the border of insanity trying to grip himself when he lets go of his tries and then he is screaming, pounding, and kicking desperate to get out through his blind rage and madness. When a guard calls him to tell him to wait that help is busy but that they'll get to him, Adam yells out curses to the guard pointing towards his german heritage and yelling the begs and curses jews held back during the holocaust. His limo driver, a jew, also witnesses his madness. When they saved him form the elevator he came out in the end. Still deep in his piece of madness he came out wondering which path to take.
Well it obvious that his goal is to how the lives of jewish people are all twisted and torn into the shape that the Holocauist had left them. The man, Adma Pogner is just an example of others who live in the left behind shadow of their hooros lived.
