I think that Bruno is in conflict with his setting. On
face value, it would be presumed that he is in conflict for his setting is Auschwitz.
Yet, the fact that he is in conflict with its mere pronunciation ("Out- With") reflects
that Bruno's dissonance with it is more profound. Bruno feels out of place from where
he is because it lacks the personal and emotional connections of his Berlin. He is in
conflict with the limitations and seeming boredom that is present. This causes him to
go to the end of the fence in the first place and find Shmuel. Bruno's innocence is in
conflict with what is happening at Auschwitz, although he is unaware of it. There is a
very interesting element in that Bruno's nature compels him to feel at ill ease with
Auschwitz even though he has little idea of what takes place at it. Ironically, the
only time in which Bruno is not at opposition with Auschwitz is when he and Shmuel
become victims of it.
