I compared two books, In Memoirs of a Holocaust Survivor: Icek Kuperberg and Hostage To War: a true story by Tajana Wassiljewa. Both of these books are holocaust survivors and they both involve their lives in war and how they survived through it but their was surprisingly many differences. I felt like Icek Kuperberg was treated more poorly than Tatjana Wassiljewa. They said that Icek Kuperberg was ordered 25 lashes for being "lazy" whereas Tatjana was just "shouted at...very angrily" for slacking off. I'm wondering if it was more due to gender or if it was due to the camps that they were in. Both of these articles contradict about life in war. But this shows that even two of the same situations could really have a lot of differences.
