Mother Night Chapter 28 Summary

Target…

  • Campbell visits Kraft in the makeshift shooting gallery. It's a long corridor with a grotesque caricature of a Jewish person on it.
  • Kraft doesn't miss.
  • Campbell tells us he drew this target for the Nazis in 1941, and it was a hit. He figured he'd make something so ridiculous that people would see that it was insane.
  • It turns out that people took Campbell's madness for truth.
  • This is why we can't have nice things.
  • Campbell then tells Kraft he can't go with them. It's basically suicide for Kraft if he joins them.
  • Kraft says he and Campbell are BFFs forever, and without Campbell, Kraft has no human in his life to care about.
  • Awwww.
