sound. Aggravated by the thumping of the tubes, the narrator himself begins pounding the tubes. Looking for something with which to strike the tubes, he discovers a cast-iron coin bank in the figure of a distorted black person.

People may perceive him as evil, but he sees himself as a necessary evil. For Anton the coin is a symbol, it represents the fact that he doesn’t have a choice. These types of…

Lost Cause of Nazism Just a few months ago, my father-in-law and I visited a local coin dealer. My father-in-law was trying to get some old coins valued. The coin dealer told us that coins and other symbols from the Nazi era were among the most valuable. It is not just in the United States where people are fascinated, in an unhealthy way, with Nazism.
