Iceberg is the writing style of Hemingwat. Influenced by his journalistic career, Hemingway contended that by omitting superfluous and extraneous matter, writing becomes more interesting. He summarized his theory:
If a writer of prose knows enough of what he is writing about he may omit things that he knows and the reader, if the writer is writing truly enough, will have a feeling of those things as strongly as though the writer had stated them. The dignity of movement of an ice-berg is due to only one-eighth of it being above water. A writer who omits things because he does not know them only makes hollow places in his writing.
When Shmuel recounts his journey on the train, he describes a horrible situation, which was completely different from Bruno's experience on his train ride. Shmuel tells Bruno that the cars were overcrowded to the point that passengers could not breathe. In contrast, Bruno recalls that there were two trains at the station when he left Berlin and naively believes that Shmuel boarded the wrong train. Even though Shmuel tries to explain to Bruno that the train he boarded had no doors, Bruno contradicts Shmuel and does not understand why Shmuel had such a negative experience on the train. Bruno and Shmuel's different perspectives are significant because they depict the contrast between those in authority (Nazis) and those in subjugation (Jews). Since Bruno is a German Nazi, he is treated with respect and enjoys a relatively comfortable train ride. In contrast, the Jewish prisoners, like Shmuel, were subjected to the horrible conditions of the tightly packed cattle cars that took them to concentration camps. Their differing perspectives further illuminates the difference in their backgrounds and situations. Despite Bruno and Shmuel's drastically different circumstances, the two boys become close friends.
