It is through this metaphor that the composer conveys the significance of the loving bond between Paul and Keller to Paul in his development. Thought out the novel peter Goldsworthy keeps goings going back to Kellers past so that is why I have put the swastika on top of the Star of David to show that the Nazis where on top and control over the israelis and because Keller speaks to Paul of his memories of the time “My
