Quote #10
'It's a mutilation!' I said. 'The pictures are bound to mutilate the words. Those words weren't meant to have pictures with them! With pictures, they aren't the same words!' (36.3)
Someone is ticked. And that someone is Campbell. He's totally miffed that someone added pics to his sex book about Helga. First off: fair. This is definitely a violation of privacy. No doubt about that. Secondly, it's super interesting to think about the interplay between image and text. Here, the images undo the value of words. They make what was kinda sorta porn into some real nasty Nazi porn (disguised as not porn, of course, because Nazis aren't supposed to be into porn). Yeah, it's complicated.
