Based on the conversation between father and bruno in chapter 5,identify 1-2impressions of father.Consider the methods of characterisation used when we look at father's qualities

Bruno respects his father, but they are distant. His relationship with Bruno is rather formal with little expression of affection.

Bruno's father can show caring like when he takes care of Maria but at the same time, he runs the most notorious death camp in history. He is a bit of a paradox.
