Lockwitzer Strasse

• 1942, August 11, Tuesday toward evening – And in the Marckwalds’ library I found only a medley of novels and some editions of the classics, but nothing that was of use to my work. On the other hand I was offered 14 pounds of potatoes; I fetched them today, in very sultry weather, from the trader in Lockwitzer Strasse, i.e., I waited there for Frau Marckwald. How bent, scraggy, and worn-out the poor woman is. Perhaps she is to be pitied even more than her paralyzed husband. **p120
