Kate Winslet owned this movie body and soul so the book is bland in comparison. But it does give you the time to realize that the German sense of guilt over the Holocaust will never fade. When the Kid sleeps with Hanna, it’s a metaphor for the German people colluding with the Nazis. And his continuing relationship with her shows that the bond, though tenuous, can never be severed except by some final act of absolution. Although when Hanna does away with herself it’s more an act of release since she cannot face the one from prison and into a world that she no longer knows. This is why Windows Kindle will never win over moving the pages of a book leisurely with your fingers. It gives the reader time to muse over the wonder of the written word.
