His father Erik consider this to be disturbing. When Simon begs to be allowed to go to a good school, Erik forces him to promise to give up the oak forever.Shortly after, Simon gets a new friend at school. Isak, a Jewish boy who's family recently fled from Nazi Germany. Erik is very suspicious of Isak's family. Not because they are Jewish, but because they are... bourgeois. Being a proud working class Swede, Erik strongly dislikes Simon's passion for culture in general and music in particular. Even worse, Simon displays musical talent.As the story progress, Simon and Isak grow up to adulthood, in the shadow of the second world war. Among other things, Simon needs to come to terms with the internal conflict of how he loves his parents and how he hates his parents.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Black-and-White Insanity | |
| Simon and the Oaks / int_a808063f | comment |
Black-and-White Insanity: Isak's mother Olga has a very unhealthy worldview, where she seem to regard Nazis as being Evil at an Eldritch Abomination level rather than regular guys who believe in a destructive ideology. Of course, her family is persecuted by Nazis: Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you. Because of the persecution, nobody understand how far off the deep end she really is, until it is too late. Just because they're really after you doesn't mean you're not a paranoid schizophrenic... She end up trying to kill her entire family. Premeditated murder, but not out of malice: She believe it to be her only chance to save them from the Nazis. | |
