Carl Stern is an artistic, elongated, beaten, 14-year-old Jewish boy, and the only shelter is to draw manga for his sister and himself. Everything changed instantly when he met Boxer Max Schmelling at his father's art gallery. As a picture, Karl accepts lessons from internationally renowned soldiers and German national heroes. Suddenly he has a purpose: training to become a legend of boxing. As the years passed, he became stronger both physically and emotionally, and his hatred against the German Jews became stronger.
One of the strengths of Carl is boxing, but when he was banned from play at the 1937 German Youth Championship, he was no longer able to use boxing as a flight, and to Berlin Boxing Club I stopped traveling. When he finally returned, he learned that the club was sold and became a place to make blankets. At the same time, Max is preparing a rematch with Joe Lewis in America Joe Louis was a famous African American boxer because he broke the empire in 1936. But when Max lost the rematch he also lost all the status with the Nazi regime and credibility. He returned to Germany, was defeated and downgraded, stayed at Excelsior Hotel
Sharenow effectively demonstrates the influence of Nazi's increasingly tight lasso against German Jews in the 1930s at the Berlin Boxing Club. I think that the character is drawn well, that is real and thoughtful. Through them, Sharenow knows why this idea may cause great confusion when many secular Jews themselves take over themselves as the first German, the second of the Jews, and Nazis first You can show that you think. In Carl, this is very obvious, I hope he will go to school with other boys and join Hitler 's Youth Team. Like many people, Stern believes that Hitler and his regime do not last long or things settle down at least. I certainly have the same feelings at that time.
Berlin boxing club began with Hitler 's stage. This is the situation on Jewish high school student Carl Stern at the beginning of Nazism. Stearns is not godly, and Carl does not look like a stereotypical Jew like some of his family. Nonetheless, Karl was bullied by students at school, beaten, humiliated, and publicly insulted by the school's government for his religious beliefs. Instead of paying cash to the father of Karl 's Intelligent Art Trading, he gained a great opportunity to learn how to fight, not boxing hero Max Max Schumling offered to Karl Boxing. Stearns needs money, but Karl 's father agrees. This story is told to the first person including sketches of his diary by Karl to help readers approach the hero. Through the sketch, the reader entertains his sisters with manga and looks at curl triggers from good brothers to become a mature boxing fan.
