There were conflicts because I was a Slovenian.
-
I even had conflicts with other Slovenians.
-
They could not understand
-
why I had so much political interest and why I am for the Slovenes.
-
Well, the disappointment was big when the English came
-
and treated us like enemies again.
-
We weren’t even allowed to go to church without ID.
-
Even the English were quite discriminating.
-
When the English came to the farmer’s the first time,
-
armed and strict, I (being a child) thought:
-
‘Why does the war keep on, although it is over?’
-
We did not understand that there were still armed men coming to the house.
-
Although we knew the English to be our confederates and helpers,
-
it was a big disappointment later.
-
I still can’t understand why the English
-
let themselves be so influenced by the Nazis
-
and we – the partisans and the Slovenes - were the enemies again.
-
„I had no tears, for nobody.“
-
Towards the end of the war the message came
-
that mother was dead.
