بخشی In a part of the book we read no friend except the mountain:
Twisted chains of hungry and humiliated men under the scorching sun that cooked their brains … An awkward combination of men of different height, weight, age and color formed a long line. The day in prison began with the noise of long, crushing lines. Early in the morning, the hungry prisoners got out of their sweaty and sticky beds, hurriedly, and stormed into the dining tent. Hungry in the true sense of the word: a feeling that made sense in connection with the concept of instinct and the struggle for survival.

By the end of the evening, no one could find anything to eat, and by the end of the night, the smell of hunger wafted through the prison. No one had the right to take even one potato out of the dining room with him. Everything about chewing and eating had to end under the same tent: the last chance to fill the stomachs, which at that moment commanded the organs of the body instead of the brains. The tail in the dining room is always a few g. They stood gloomy and dry-brained, overthrowing anyone who came out of the tent. With glances they were able to look inside the pockets as well.
If a pocket came out, Papu was instructed to look around its owner. It was a place where physical control was intense. Papu, who was shaking his head in regret, was looking around his pockets, legs, sides, and in some cases under his shoulders. The result was sometimes the discovery of a mashed potato or piece of meat emerging from a trash can. جی. For. He also reminded in a single sentence that taking out food is illegal.

It is hard to imagine proud young men standing in long lines in the sun for hours; Twisted lines that ended in dirty and poor quality food. Their flesh was car tires; The struggle of the jaws to crush pieces of steamed meat was spectacular.
