Who were the Senciminers?
Answer. The Senciminers from the town of Sencimin were the native Jewish inhabitants. The Germans destroyed the city and were thrown out of the town forcefully. Many Senciminers were left tortured, burned and gassed, and very few survived and escaped to America from the camps.
Why did Dr Margolin not particularly want his wife to accompany him to the wedding?
Answer. Whenever Dr Margolin took Gretl to a wedding or Bar Mitzvah, he felt ashamed. Even though she was born a Christian, Dr Margolin could see that American Judaism was a mess. At least this time, he would forgive himself for the trouble of making excuses to her. So, Dr Margolin does not particularly want his wife to accompany him to weddings or parties.
