These individual attitudes must never go unchallenged.

'Did your wife ask you what you were doing in Sobibor? What sort of camp it was?'

This feeling of responsibility only intensified over the next twenty years. I was, if you like, deputizing for all the others: my aunt [Reinhard Heydrich's widow], who felt proud of her husband; his three children, who - I cannot understand why - felt and feel nothing; my mother, who, having always instinctively disliked my uncle, was able to hide comfortably behind that early rejection. My father, of course, was no longer there. Somebody had to feel guilt for the devilish things my uncle had done.'
