The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from Dawn O'Hara, The Girl Who Laughed by Edna Ferber: Street and gaze at the stars and stripes floating from
the government building, in order to convince myself that

Knapf. After one has seen them, one quite understands why
the place is steeped in a German atmosphere up to its

I never would have found it myself. It was Doctor
von Gerhard who had suggested Knapf's, and who had paved
the way for my coming here.
