First, the miscarriage of communicating the camp experience prevents a return to human relationships based on communication; thus the inability to link the world with the antiworld keeps the survivor at a distance from humanity. Second, the loss of a home prohibits a return to freedom, since to be free is to have a place to return to. Finally, having the dead denied their burial rites leaves the Event without closure. The human being, then, may leave the camp, but the camp does not leave the human being.
