Lilly is a few years younger than Julia, who is an aspiring playwright waiting to become famous. ... Lilly must learn to be strong and courageous as time calls her to aid Julia in Europe. ... Julia is part of an anti-fascist group, who depends immensely on Lily to help her save hundreds of people from being killed. Although Lilly and Julia grow up together through good times and trough bad, they become heroic in different ways based on their actions in a life-threatening situation.
Lilly is a hero in the sense that she risks her life to save others for the sake of Julia. ... There are no significant signs that she really empathizes with the Jews who are suffering, but she acts upon Julia’s requests as a friend. Even as children, Julia tried to explain to Lilly about her visit to Cairo. She says that it was not beautiful at all, but rather described it as being ugly. At a young age, Julia was able to see the wrong doing in the world and its harsh realities, but Lilly failed to comprehend the falsehood Julia found in people. ...
Lilly’s actions are heroic only for the sake of Julia. It seems she takes on the mission throughout Europe only because Julia had asked for her help.
