summarize pages 34-39

Page 34 starts where Josef’s story left off, as he is dragged on the train by the Hitler Youth. He takes Josef to the Jewish compartment and tells him not to take off his armband, then marches away. They arrive at the Hamburg train station to board their ship the MS St. Louis. They meet their father, but he is not the same. He is gaunt and thin; looking “like an escapee from a mental asylum” (36). They walk to the ship and their father races inside, convinced the authorities will try to stop them. His mother gives the sailor their tickets and they board the boat. Amidst the celebration of leaving, Josef is concerned about his father.
