Growing Up in Prison Camps and Joining the Communist Party

This chapter explores the experiences of a child growing up in prison camps, being taken care of by locals, and eventually securing a job maintaining the electrical system. It delves into the child's encounters with a guy on a bike who repairs the bike's electrical system and the ideological mentorship he receives from a 20-year-old middle-class Jewish guy who had also been in prison. The chapter also discusses the imposition of a new constitution, the person's release from prison, and their decision to join the communist party in another city.
