Vladek Analysis

The story in the beginning starts out relatively slow. Artie stop s by the house of his father, Vladek, and wanted to learn the story of how his parents met. In the process Artie wants to learn the whole story of how his parents progressed throughout the Holocaust. In the beginning it is very happy for me to witness Vladek appear in society as a respected young individual, who has no social bias directed towards him.
