The end
Toward the end of the novel, Germany was slowly losing the war. Many prisoners had to undergo many embarrassments and cruelty. At the beginning of the war Oskar Schindler was a very wealthy man but at the end of the war, his fortunes were drained. When the war ended Oskar was rewarded and honored by many Jewish Organizations, the survivors of his camps could not of been more grateful and more happy for what he risked his life to do for strangers. He would be thanked for the rest of his life. Amon Goeth, was arrested, at the time of his arrest he was an over weight and cruel man. Two years later, he was thinned out by diabetes and was hanged. Before he was executed, Goeth saluted Hitler. Goeth had no sorrows for what he did, he did not even feel guilty for all the innocent lives he took. In Germany, Schindler was stoned and abhorred. He decided to move to Argentina to become a farmer. Thomas Keneally used great details in this novel, it can be said in my opinion that this is one of the greatest books I have ever read. It was a book that I could almost not put down. His words, have a huge impact on me and made me realize and think about what people had to face during this war.
