Explain hardships of the past & personal pronouns in the dative: euch, ihnen / Ihnen.
Paul boosts Grandpa's spirits with coffee and updates him on his search for the book. But because he gets many rejections for his job applications, he feels hopeless. Grandpa empathizes with him and suggests that he should start writing, even without a formal writing job. So Paul decides to work on freelancer websites and to create a blog featuring the story about Fritz. Grandpa finally reveals the story behind the book: it holds the secret to a forbidden painting that belonged to his father during the war. To safe it from being burned by the Nazis, Grandpa's father wrote his name on the back and hid it at a friend's house. Then he wrote the address of the hiding place in the book. Unfortunately, both Grandpa's father and his friend died in the war. After the war, the painting was no longer forbidden and Grandpa wanted to find it. But there was the GDR and now the book with the address of the hiding place was forbidden. So he didn't want to carry it around and ripped the page with the address out of the book. Then he went off in search of the painting. What happened on Grandpa's search for the painting? Why is the book so important even though the page with the address of the hiding place is missing?
