“
The next day I cannot help myself — I am drawn at the same time to that spot near the fence. And again she comes. And again she brings me an apple flinging it over the fence with that same sweet smile. This time I catch it and hold it up for her to see. Her eyes twinkle. For seven months we meet like this. One day I hear frightening news: we're being shipped to another camp. The next day when I greet her my heart is breaking and I can barely speak as I say what must be said: "Don't bring me an apple tomorrow." I tell her, "I am being sent to another camp." Turning before I lose all my control I run away from the fence. I cannot bear to look back. 去书内

    Notes on Hungry for Your Love (Excerpt) This excerpt from Hungry for Your Love unfolds a poignant story set in a death camp, where a simple apple becomes a powerful symbol of life and human connection amid despair. The narrator, trapped in the camp’s bleak reality, finds hope when a girl tosses an apple over the fence—an act he interprets as a gesture of love and a reminder of life’s warmth in a world of death. This small interaction sparks a routine: for seven months, the girl returns daily with an apple, sharing a sweet smile and a silent bond with the narrator, whose joy in catching the apple and seeing her twinkling eyes becomes a rare source of light. The fragile peace is shattered when the narrator learns he will be shipped to another camp.
