According to the statement above:

"World War II and Nazism influenced many European writers. In this unit, you read selections by Milosz and Ionesco. Compare the different tones and perspectives these writers bring to bear on this subject."

The answer is that the poem called "The rhinoceros" and the people living in the town that were transforming, actually they were nazis; more and more people were turning to them and "transforming" into nazis in the poem. The only ones that were "immune" to this were the ones that were not swayed, and they were hunted down and attacked even by their lovers and family members. On the contrary, "in and yet the books" for me the book represented an unstoppable force amongst the carnage. Hope this helps.
