S4

Your mother blamed herself , as always . You didn ’t know what you were doing , she said . I could accept that when you traded the shofar I gave you for that eMotiv headset , perhaps , or even when you befriended those young toughs with the shaved heads and the filthy mouths . I would never have forgiven the swastika on your game pod but you are my daughter ’s son , not mine . Maybe it was only adolescent rebellion . How could you know , after all ? How could any child really know , here in 2017 ? Genocide is far too monstrous a thing for history books and grainy old photographs to convey . You were not there ; you could never understand .

T4

您的母亲总是责备自己。她说，你不知道自己在做什么。你将我送给你的羊角号拿去换了那个 eMotiv 耳机，我可以原谅你；也许，甚至你和那些剃光头并满嘴下流话的二流子们交朋友，我也可以接受。我永远不会原谅你的游戏中的那个纳粹字符；但你是我女儿的儿子，而不是我的儿子。也许这只是青少年的叛逆吧。毕竟，你又知道什么呢？现在是 2017 年，有哪些孩子真的知道吗？种族灭绝要远比历史书籍和年代久远的照片所传达的含义更为可怕。你没有经历过；所以你永远都无法理解。

S5

We told ourselves you were a good boy at heart , that it was ancient history to you , abstract and unreal . Both of us doctors , familiar with the sad stereo type of the self - loathing Jew , we talked ourselves into treating you like some kind of victim . And then the police brought you back from the cemetery and you looked at us with those dull , indifferent eyes , and I stopped making excuses . It wasn ’t just your uncle ’s grave . You were spitting on six million others , and you knew , and it meant nothing .

T5

我们告诉我们自己，你在内心里是个好男孩；对你来说，这是一段古老的历史，抽象且不真实。我们两位医生都熟悉犹太人这种令人悲伤的立体式自我厌恶的感觉；我们说服像对待受害者一样对待你。然后警察把你从墓地带回来；你用那沉闷冷漠的眼神望着我们；我也不再找借口了。这已不仅仅是你叔叔的坟墓。你在向其他 600 万人吐唾沫；但是，你并不知道这意味着什么。
