>Surprising to me to read a story of someone growing in the midst of the second world war, lost his father to Auschwitz; further down the story he's super annoyed that some of his students had a website collecting his writings. To me it almost feels that those two worlds are completely disconnected, yet here we are. Of course they're disconnected. The latter protest came about after the man was elderly, having spent the remainder of his life in isolation well after he'd gone "completely insane", to borrow the article's phrasing. Considering the toll life must've taken on him, there's really no surprise there.
