This review is from: The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (Vintage Children's Classics) (Kindle Edition) I did not cry. But my heart did break. And I was in shock for a day or two. The amount of injustice based on cast and religion shook my world. And I couldn’t help but wonder how easy it becomes to forget that we are same body and flesh under those labels and stamps of religion. We are born the same way and die in the same manner.

His Father's promotion to the job of 'Commandent' in the Army requires them to move to an isolated house called 'Out-with'.Bruno is unhappy with this unwelcome event as he has to leave behind the bustling city of Berlin, their five-storey mansion, his three best friends for life and his grandparents. His older sister Gretel, who is anyway a Hopeless Case(as all older sisters are supposed to be) is also of no help. Adding to his misery, this new place feels very strange to him, having no other houses apart from his, military men always coming in and out of his house, a fence in front of the house which stretches as far as the eye can see and people beyond the fence wearing striped pyjamas.
