4
Arrival on Himmel Street.
5
That last time, that red sky, how does a book thief end up kneeling and howling and flanked by a man -made heap of ridiculous, greasy, cooked -up rubble.
6
Years earlier, the start was snow.
7
The time had come for one.
8
A spectacularly tragic moment.
9
A train was moving quickly.
10
It is packed with humans.
11
A six -year -old boy died in the third carriage.
12
The book thief and her brother were traveling down toward Munich, where they would soon be given over to foster parents we now know of course
13
that the boy didn't make it how it happened there was an intense spurt of coughing almost an inspired spurt
14
and soon after nothing when the coughing stopped there was nothing
15
but the nothingness of life moving on with a shuffle
16
or a near silent twitch a suddenness found its way onto his lips then
17
which were a corroded brown color and peeling like old paint
18
and desperate need of redoing their mother was asleep i entered the train my feet stepped through the cluttered aisle
19
and my palm was over his mouth in an instant no
20
one noticed the train galloped on except the girl with one
21
eye open one still in a dream the book thief also known as liselle memminger could see without question
22
that her younger brother verner was now sideways
23
and dead his blue eyes stared at the floor seeing nothing
24
so the name of the book thief is elisele prior to
25
waking up the book thief was dreaming about the fuhrer adolf
26
hitler in the dream she was attending a rally at
27
which he spoke looking at the skull colored part in his hair
28
and the perfect square of his mustache she was listening contentedly to the torrent of words spilling from his mouth.
29
His sentences glowed in the light.
30
In a quieter moment, he actually crouched down and smiled at her.
31
She returned the smile and said, Guten Tag, Herr Führer.
32
I cannot read German.
33
Okay, so just read that quietly.
34
She hadn't learned to speak too well or even to read, as she had rarely frequented school.
35
The reason for
36
that she would find out in due course just as the
37
fewer was about to reply she woke up it was january 1939
38
she was nine years old soon to be ten her brother
39
was dead one eye open one still in a dream it would be better for a complete dream i think
40
but i really have no control over that the second i jumped awake
41
and she caught me out no doubt about it it was exactly
42
when i knelt down
43
and extracted his soul holding it limply in my swollen arms he warmed up soon after
44
but when i picked him up originally the boy's spirit was soft
45
and cold like ice cream he started melting in my arms
46
then warming up completely healing for lesel memminger there was the imprisoned stiffness of movement
47
and the staggered onslaught of thoughts this isn't happening this isn't happening and the shaking.
48
Why do they always shake them?
49
Yes, I know, I know.
50
I assume it has something to do with instinct, to stem the flow of truth.
51
Her heart at that point was slippery and hot and loud, so loud, so loud.
52
Stupidly, I stayed.
53
I watched.
54
Next, her mother.
55
She woke her up with the same distraught shake.
56
If you can't imagine it, think clumsy silence.
57
Think bits and pieces of floating despair
58
and drowning in a train snow had been falling consistently
59
and the service to munich was forced to stop due to
60
faulty track work there was a woman wailing a girl stood
61
numbly next to her in panic the mother opened the door
62
she climbed down into the snow holding the small body what could the girl do
63
but follow as you've been informed two guards also exited the train They discussed and argued over what to do.
64
The situation was unsavory, to say the least.
65
It was eventually decided that all three of them should be taken to the next township
66
and left there to sort things out.
67
This time, the train limped through the snowed -in country.
68
It hobbled in and stopped.
69
They stepped onto the platform, the body in her mother's arms.
70
They stood.
71
The boy was getting heavy.
72
Liesel had no idea where she was all was white, and as they remained at the station,
73
she could only stare at the faded lettering of the sign in front of her.
74
For Elisil, the town was nameless, and it was there that her brother verner was buried two days later witnesses included a priest
75
and two shivering grave diggers an observation a pair of train guards a pair of grave diggers
76
when it came down to it one of them called the
77
shots the other did what he was told the question is what
78
if the other is a lot more than one okay
79
so um i never really understood this part before when he talks about that no There were two guards.
80
One calls the shots, the other follows.
81
Then he talks about these two gravediggers.
82
One calls the shot, one follows.
83
And I understand now that it's because he's tying this into World War II Germany, no?
84
And so he said that what
85
if the one calling the shots has a whole army or a whole nation of people to command?
86
So it's clearly kind of referencing Hitler again, since again, this is a World War II book.
87
Mistakes, mistakes, it's all I seem capable of at times.
88
For two days I went about my business.
89
I traveled the globe, as always, handing souls to the conveyor belt of eternity.
90
I watched them trundle passively on.
91
Several times I warned myself that I should keep a good distance from the burial of less lovely Selmeminger's brother.
92
I did not heed my advice.
93
From miles away, as I approached, I could already see the small group of humans standing frigidly among the wasteland of snow.
94
The cemetery welcomed me like a friend, and soon I was with them.
95
I bowed my head.
96
Standing to Liesel's left, the gravediggers were rubbing their hands together and whining about the snow and the current digging conditions,
97
so hard getting through all the eyes and so forth.
98
One of them couldn't have been more than 14, an apprentice.
99
When he walked away after a few dozen paces, a black book fell innocuously from his coat pocket without his knowledge.
100
So these gravediggers buried her brother, and the younger one, when he was walking away, he dropped a book.
101
A few minutes later, Liesel's mother started leaving with a priest.
102
She was thanking him for his performance of the ceremony.
103
The girl, however, stayed.
104
Her knees entered the ground.
105
Her moment had arrived.
106
Still in disbelief, she started to dig.
107
He couldn't be dead.
108
He couldn't be dead.
109
He couldn't.
110
Within seconds, snow was carved into her skin.
111
Frozen blood was cracked across her hands.
112
Somewhere in all the snow, she could see her broken heart in two pieces.
113
Each half was glowing and beating under all that white.
114
she realized her mother had come back for her only
115
when she felt the boniness of a hand on her shoulder
116
she was being dragged away a warm scream filled her throat a small image perhaps twenty meters away
117
when the dragging was done the mother and the girl stood
118
and breathed there was something black
119
and rectangular lodged in the snow only the girl saw it she bent down
120
and picked it up
121
and held it firmly in her fingers the book had silver
122
writing on it they held hands a final soaking farewell was let go of
123
and they turned
124
and left the cemetery looking back several times as for me
125
i remained a few moments longer i waved no one waved back mother
126
and daughter vacated the cemetery and made their way toward the next train to munich both were skinny and pale, both had sores on their lips.
127
Liesl noticed it in the dirty, fogged -up window of the train when they boarded just before midday.
128
In the written words of the book thief herself, the journey continued like everything had happened.
129
When the train pulled into the Bahnhof in Munich, the passengers slid out as if from a thorn package.
130
There were people of every stature, but among them the poor were the most easily recognized.
131
The impoverished always try to keep moving, as if relocating might help.
132
They ignore the reality that a new version of the same old problem will be waiting at the end of the trip.
133
The relative you cringe to kiss.
134
I think her mother knew this quite well.
135
She wasn't delivering her children to the higher echelons of Munich, but a foster home had apparently been found.
136
And if nothing else, the new family could at least feed the girl and the boy a little better, and educate them properly the boy.
137
Liesl was sure her mother carried the memory of him, slung over her shoulder.
138
She dropped him.
139
She saw his feet and legs and body slap the platform.
140
How could that woman walk?
141
How could she move?
142
That's the sort of thing I'll never know or comprehend, what humans are capable of.
143
She picked him up and continued walking, the girl clinging now to her side.
144
Obviously, the mother wasn't literally carrying the boy you know
145
because they buried him already but it's a metaphor where um when a parent loses a child
146
they carry them with them always all the time they're carrying the memory of them no
147
and the pain of having lost them um
148
and the mother pagod she she's giving up liselle um she's
149
she can't support liselle anymore she couldn't support her kids that's why they're traveling
150
because she was gonna leave liselle and her son with another family who could take care of them
151
Authorities were met and questions of lateness in the boy raised their vulnerable heads.
152
Liesel remained in the corner of the small dusty office as her mother sat with clenched thoughts on a very hard chair.
153
There was the chaos of goodbye.
154
It was a goodbye that was wet, with the girl's head buried into the woolly, worn shallows of her mother's coat.
155
There had been some more dragging.
156
quite a way beyond the outskirts of munich there was a
157
town called molking said best by the likes of you
158
and me as molking that's where they were taking her to
159
a street by the name of himmel a translation himmel means heaven okay
160
so himmel is the german word for heaven
161
and that's the name of the street
162
that liselle was going to live in that's where the family
163
that wanted to adopt her that's where they lived no himmel
164
street heaven street whoever named himmel street certainly had a healthy sense of irony not
165
that it was a living hell it wasn't
166
but it sure as hell wasn't heaven either regardless lisa's foster
167
parents were waiting the hubbermans they'd been expecting a girl
168
and a boy
169
and would be paid a small allowance for having them nobody wanted to be the one to tell Rosa Huberman
170
that the boy didn't survive the trip.
171
In fact, no one ever really wanted to tell her anything.
172
As far as dispositions go, hers wasn't really enviable.
173
Although she had a good record with foster kids in the past, apparently she'd straightened a few out.
174
For Liesel, it was a ride in a car.
175
She'd never been in one before.
176
So the Hubermans was the name of the family that were going to adopt Liesel.
177
And they were really doing it, guys, because back then
178
if you adopt a child the government gives you an allowance to help raise them okay
179
and so the mother couldn't support her child anymore and
180
so the hubbermans were willing to adopt these cells so
181
that they would also get money from the government there was the constant rise
182
and fall of her stomach and the fruitile hopes that they'd lose their way or change their minds
183
among it all her thoughts couldn't help turning toward her mother back at the back north waiting to leave again, shivering, bundled up in that useless coat.
184
She'd be eating her nails, waiting for the train.
185
The platform would be long and uncomfortable, a slice of cold cement.
186
Would she keep an eye out for the approximate burial site of her son on the return trip, or would sleep be too heavy?
187
The car moved on with Liesel dreading the last lethal turn.
188
The day was grey, the colour of europe curtains of rain were drawn around the
189
car nearly there the foster care lady fra heinrich turned around
190
and smiled your new home lisa made a clear circle on the dribbled glass and looked out
191
a photo of himmel street the buildings appeared to be glued together mostly small houses apartment blocks
192
that look nervous there is murky snow spread out like carpet there is concrete empty hat stand trees and gray air.
193
A man was also in the car.
194
He remained with the girl while Frau Heinrich disappeared inside.
195
He never spoke.
196
Gleisel assumed he was there to make sure she wouldn't run away
197
or to force her inside if she gave them any trouble.
198
Later, however, when the trouble did start, he simply sat there and watched.
199
Perhaps he was only the last resort, it, the final solution.
200
After a few minutes, a very tall man came out.
201
Hans Habermann, Liesel's foster father.
202
On one side of him was the medium -height Frau Heinrich.
203
On the other was a squat shape of Rosa Habermann, who looked like a small wardrobe with a coat thrown over it.
204
There was a distinct waddle to her walk, almost cute if it wasn't for her face, which was like creased up cardboard and annoyed as
205
if she was merely tolerating all of it her husband walked
206
straight with a cigarette smoldering between his fingers he rolled his own
207
so hans and rosa haberman are her new parents hans is very tall smoking a cigarette
208
that he rolls up on his own rosa is very short and squat and she looks like pissed 24 7.
209
the fact was this, Liesel would not get out of the car.
210
Rosa Huberman, oh my god, I can't read German.
211
Was is los mit dem Kind?
212
Ross Huberman inquired.
213
She said it again.
214
What's wrong with this child?
215
She stuck her face inside the car and said, na, come, come.
216
The seat in front was flung forward a corridor of cold light invited her out, she would not move.
217
Outside, through the circle she'd made, Liesel could see the tall man's fingers still holding the cigarette.
218
Ash stumbled from its edge and lunged and lifted several times until it hit the ground.
219
It took nearly fifteen minutes to coax her from the car.
220
It was the tall man who did it, quietly.
221
There was the gate next which she clung to
222
so lisel doesn't want to stay there okay um she misses her mom she just lost her brother
223
and so she's refusing to she refused to get out of the car
224
and then they finally dragged her out of the car
225
and now she's holding on to the gate she's refusing to let go of the gate
226
there was the gate next
227
which she clung to a gang of tears trudged from her eyes as she held on and refused to go inside.
228
People started to gather on the streets until Rosa Huberman swore at them, after which they reversed back whence they came.
229
A translation of Rosa Huberman's announcement, what are you looking at?
230
Eventually, Liesel Memminger walked gingerly inside.
231
Hans Huberman had her by one hand, her small suitcase had her by the other.
232
Buried beneath the folded layer of clothes in that suitcase was a small black book, which for all we know a 14 year old grave digger
233
in a nameless town had probably spent the last few hours
234
looking for i promise you i imagine him saying to his
235
boss i have no idea what happened to it i've looked
236
everywhere everywhere i'm sure he would never have suspected the girl
237
and yet there it was a black book with silver words written against the ceiling of her clothes okay
238
So Liesel stole the book, the book that fell in the snow when her brother died.
239
She took it.
240
The Gravedigger's Handbook, a 12 -step guide to gravedigging success, published by the Bayearn Cemetery Association.
241
The book thief had struck for the first time the beginning of an illustrious career.
242
Okay, Growing Up as Sawmange.
243
Yes, an illustrious career.
244
I should hasten to admit, however, that there was a considerable hiatus between the first stolen book and the second.
245
Another noteworthy point is that the first was stolen from snow and the second from fire.
246
Not to admit that others were also given to her all told she owned 14 books
247
but she saw her story as being made up predominantly of
248
10 of them of those 10 six were stolen one showed
249
up at the kitchen table two were made for her by a hidden jew
250
and one was delivered by a soft yellow dressed afternoon okay
251
so this is something that you're gonna have to get used to guys how the thing
252
that death does is he jumps forward in time a lot
253
like he he's telling you the story in the future no
254
and so he says
255
that oh she's gonna she's gonna steal another book her second book is gonna be from fire
256
but that's a long way off pa
257
and then he talks to you about the 14 books she's going to gather as this story goes on
258
so you're gonna have to get used to
259
that yeah death knows everything already
260
and he's going to give you spoilers as this story goes on he will tell you things
261
that you will be mad about guys like you will be like why did you spoil
262
that for me okay um and it's something
263
that you're gonna have to get used to as we continue reading
264
when she came to write her story she would wonder exactly
265
when the books and the words started to mean not just something
266
but everything was it when she first set eyes on the room with shelves
267
and shelves of them or when max vandenberg arrived on himmel street carrying handfuls of suffering
268
and hitler's mean comp was it reading in the shelters the last parade to Dachau?
269
Was it the word shaker?
270
Perhaps there would never be a precise answer as to when and where it occurred.
271
In any case, that's getting ahead of myself.
272
Before we make it to any of that, we first need to tour Liesel Meminger's beginnings on Himmel Street and the art of Somenshing.
273
Upon her arrival, you could still see the bite marks of snow on her hands
274
and the frosty blood on her fingers everything about her was
275
undernourished wire -like chins coat hanger arms she did not produce it easily
276
but when it came she had a starving smile her hair was a close enough brand of german blonde
277
but she had dangerous eyes dark brown you didn't really want brown eyes in germany around
278
that time perhaps she received them from her father
279
but she had no way of knowing as she couldn't remember
280
him there was really only one thing she knew about her
281
father it was a label she did not understand a strange word communist
282
she'd heard it several times in the past few years communist
283
there were boarding houses crammed with people rooms filled with question and
284
that word the strange word was always there somewhere standing in
285
the corner watching from the dark it wore suits uniforms no
286
matter where they went there it was each time her father was mentioned she could smell it
287
and taste it she just couldn't spell or understand it
288
when she asked her mother what it meant she was told
289
that it wasn't important
290
that she shouldn't worry about such things at one boarding house
291
there was a healthier woman who tried to teach the children
292
to write using charcoal on the wall lisa was tempted to ask her for the meaning
293
but it never eventuated one day
294
that woman was taken away for questioning she didn't come back okay
295
so dark brown eyes would be dangerous in this time guys
296
because you might be jewish okay um jews had dark eyes man
297
and most germans have blue eyes or light colored eyes and
298
so lisel was blonde but she had dark eyes and they said
299
that those were dangerous eyes to have eyes that color no
300
and we do know that lisel's father was a communist
301
and basically this is just marco zusek telling us
302
that um politics were messed up in this time no it was clearly a very troubled and scary time.
303
When Liesel arrived in Malking, she had at least some inkling that she was being saved.
304
But that was not a comfort.
305
If her mother loved her, why leave her on someone else's doorstep?
306
Why?
307
Why?
308
Why?
309
The fact that she knew the answer, if only at the most basic level, seemed beside the point.
310
Her mother was constantly sick, and there was never any money to fix her.
311
Liesl knew that, but that didn't mean she had to accept it.
312
No matter how many times she was told that she was loved, there was no recognition that the proof was in the abandonment.
313
Nothing changed the fact that she was a lost, skinny child in another foreign place with more foreign people alone.
314
The Hubbermans lived in one of the small box -like houses on Himmel Street.
315
A few rooms, a kitchen, and a shared out house with neighbors.
316
The roof was flat, and there was a shallow basement for storage.
317
It was supposedly not a basement of adequate depth.
318
In 1939, this wasn't a problem.
319
Later, in 42 and 43, it was.
320
When air raids started, they always needed to rush down the streets to a better shelter.
321
In the beginning, it was the profanity that made an immediate impact.
322
It was so vehement and prolific.
323
Every second word was either sawmensch or sawcurl, or, and then I do know that one is, um, a -hole, no, that's the German word for that,
324
so I won't say that.
325
For people who aren't familiar with these words, I should explain.
326
Sow, of course, refers to pigs.
327
In the case of sawmensch, it serves to castigate, berate, or plain humiliate a female.
328
Sock -curl, pronounced sock -carol, okay, now I know that, is for a male.
329
Um, again, I can't say that.
330
Can be translated directly into hmm.
331
That word, however, does not differentiate between the sexes, it simply is.
332
Liesl's foster mother shouted that first evening when she refused to have a bath, you filthy pig, why won't you get undressed?
333
She was good at being furious.
334
In fact, you could say that Rosa Haberman had a face decorated with constant fury.
335
That was how the creases were made in the cardboard texture of her complexion.
336
Liesel naturally was bathed in anxiety.
337
There was no way she was getting into any bath or into bed for that matter.
338
She was twisted into one corner of the closet -like washroom, clutching for the non -existent arms of the wall for some level of support.
339
There was nothing but dry paint, difficult breath, and the deluge of abuse from Rosa.
340
Leave her alone, Hans Habermann entered the fray.
341
His gentle voice made its way in as it's slipping through a crowd.
342
Leave her to me.
343
So Rosa Habermann just keeps cursing and screaming at Liesel, like she wants to give her a bath, and Hans Habermann is like, relax, I'll handle it.
344
He moved closer and sat on the floor against the wall.
345
The tiles were cold and unkind you know how to roll a cigarette he asked her
346
and for the next hour or
347
so they sat in the rising pool of darkness playing with the tobacco
348
and the cigarette papers and Hans Habermann smoking them
349
so he was teaching her how to roll cigarettes so she would trust him When the hour was up, Liesl could roll a cigarette moderately well.
350
She still didn't have a bath.
351
Some facts about Hans Huberman.
352
He loved to smoke.
353
The main thing he enjoyed about smoking was the rolling.
354
He was a painter by trade and played the piano accordion.
355
This came in handy, especially in winter, when he could make a little money playing in the pubs of Malking, like the knoller.
356
He had already cheated me in one world war, but would later be put into another.
357
So he fought in World War I, but he survived death, but then he would also fight in World War II,
358
a perverse kind of reward where he would somehow manage to avoid me again.
359
To most people, Hans Haberman was barely visible, an unspecial person.
360
Certainly, his painting skills were excellent, his musical ability was better than average.
361
Somehow though, and I'm sure you've met people like this, he was able to appear as merely part of the background, even if he was standing at the front of a line.
362
He was always just there, not noticeable, not important, or particularly valuable.
363
The frustration of that appearance, as you can imagine, was its complete misleadance, let's say.
364
There most definitely was value in him, and it did not go unnoticed by Liesel Memminger,
365
the human child, so much cannier at times than the stupefyingly ponderous adult.
366
She saw it immediately.
367
His manner, the quiet air around him.
368
When he turned the light on in the small, callous washroom that night, Liesel observed the strangeness of her foster father's eyes.
369
They were made of kindness and silver, like soft silver, melting.
370
Liesel, upon seeing those eyes understood that Hans Haberman was worth a lot.

Some facts about Rosa Haberman.
372
She was five feet, one inch tall, and wore her brownie, gray strands of elastic hair in a bun.
373
To supplement the Haberman income, she did the washing and ironing for five of the wealthier households in Mulking.
374
Her cooking was atrocious.
375
She possessed the unique ability to aggravate almost anyone she ever met, but she did love Liesel Meminger.

Her way of showing it just happened to be strange.

When Liesel finally had a bath, after two weeks of living on Himmel Street, Rosa gave her an enormous injury -inducing hug.

Nearly choking her, she said, So man, it's about time.
382
After a few months, they were no longer Mr. and Mrs. Huberman.
383
With a typical fistful of words, Rosa said, Now listen, Liesel, from now on you call me Mama, she thought a moment.

385
Liesel answered quietly.
386
Also, Mama.
387
Well, I'm Mama number two then.
388
She looked over at her husband and him over there.
389
She seemed to collect the words in her hand, pat them together, and hurl them across the table.
390
That sock hurl, that filthy pig you call him, Papa, understand?
391
Yes, Liesel promptly agreed.

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
