In my opinion, the ending of the story was obviously based on Bruno and his Dad. I think the ending didn’t really give enough detail of what happened to Bruno, and also at the end, is says “Of course all this happened a long time ago and nothing, like that could happen again, Not in this day and age.” But, there are things that happen like this for example some people keep innocent people hostage and they gas people too and they do other bad things. In the world nothing is perfect, there are always bad thing that happen ad that you cant stop and there are things that you can, also the gas chamber issue happened just before a war and this can happen again because you never know, there might be another war.
