Eva Braun was 17 years old when she graduated from a Catholic convent school and decided to work at a photography store with a man named Hoffmann. There, she would sell film and help develop photos; but the most exciting thing for her was when she saw a man with "a funny mustache and a beige english coat" who she later realized was Hitler. This curiosity of Eva Braun's symbolizes her youth and the naive behavior that comes with it. To her stupefaction, the stranger named Hitler was interested in her, but not in a romantic way, which would mellow as they spent more time together. "He would give me these great compliments and offer to take me to the opera or have a lift in his mercedes on few occassions." Personally, I wouldn't want to be anywhere near Hitler, and I'd try to debris offers to go to special events as politely as possible. What I'm really interested in knowing is how could Eva not realize who Hitler was? How could she acquisition it in herself to like him? What do you guys think? Going on, Eva Braun agreed to live with Hitler in his retreat in the Alps, which happened when they started 'dating', and what I mean by them supposedly dating is that it really wasn't a typical dating relationship. Most of the time, Hitler would show such delinquency that Eva would finally make the decision to commit suicide. "I about never heard from him, and I know that if he wanted to, he would find some way to contact me." All this symbolizes is that Eva Braun is willing to go through a large amount of emotional pain to be with the one she loves. P: This connects to American History because many World War 2 leaders had mistresses who later became well known figures in history. E: A moral concern in this book is that Eva would go against her parent's will to be someone's mistress, someone in which she doesn't even know that well. "No matter how much they begged and pleaded, I refused to change my mind." This proves that Eva was determined to be Hitler's mistress, even though it came with many moral concerns. A: The theme is that love is very unexpected, and that no matter how much you wish you didn't love somebody, it sometimes can't be removed. "I wish I never set eyes on that devil; the one person who is causing me the most pain." This proves that she regrets ever falling in love with Hitler, but at that point, there wasn't anything she could do to take it back.
