The Zookeeper's Wife: A War Story Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Jan has a dilemma: "Adolf has to be stopped" (2.1).
No, not Hitler, but a rhesus monkey named Adolf.
Hitler will be stopped before the monkey is, because this is literally never mentioned again.
Antonina wanders the zoo and observes the animals, like Tuzinka, "one of only twelve elephants ever born in captivity" (2.11).
Antonina longs for people to connect more with their animal natures, and she often invites artists to the zoo to "uncage their imaginations" (2.15).
