In the yellow notebook, George is Ella’s ex-husband, as well as the equivalent of Max Wulf (in the blue notebook) and Willi Rodde (in the black notebook) for Anna. Ella never found George attractive and married him “almost out of exhaustion”; she was relieved when he left her for another woman, but feels uncomfortable moving past him when she meets Paul Tanner.
