• Bruno is the son of one of Hitlers Commandants. Shmuel is a Jewish Boy. The boy in the striped pyjamas is a story of the relationship that develops between the two boys when Brunos father is posted to Auschwitz. Bruno has to adapt to his new life away from his comfortable existence in Berlin. Essentially this novel was written for children to explain the story of the holocaust and Hitlers final solution through the eyes of two boys separated by more than just a metal fence.
