Instinct, Intelligence, Adaptability, and Ingenuity are equally used within the novels I’ve read by the protagonists inside of the novels. The ways in which Instinct, Intelligence, Adaptability, and Ingenuity is used within my Summer Reading Novel is explained in the following paragraph. Over the long and seemingly endless summer, I read a book that that told the struggle of dealing with an eating disorder and overcoming the death of a close friend. The protagonist of the novel (Lia Anderson), felt apathetic towards the pain she committed on her body via cutting and starving herself from the beginning of the novel until the very end of the novel. The ways in which Adaptability is helpful happen to be in my novel Night, which states from the main character’s point of view, that even through days, weeks, and months of torture, the protagonist and his father seem to have now become apathetic to the torture of their fellow men, women, and children.…
Elie Wiesel’s Night teaches about the Holocaust from the perspective of a Jewish boy named Eliezer. Reading and analyzing Night has conveyed points about the Holocaust that differ from topics that I have studied in the past. The main point of my analyzation of Night is the dehumanization of the Nazis’ victims, mainly in concentration camps. Many past Holocaust books and movies that I have studied focus more on the events that happen before the concentration camps, but Night takes place almost entirely in the camps. It helps me to see the Holocaust from a different perspective than the one that I have been seeing it from every year.…

Elie Wiesel’s well-known book Night is based on his own terrifying experience with his father at the Nazi Germany concentration camps of Auschwitz and Buchenwald from 1944 to 1945 in the midst of the Holocaust and the Second World War. In as little as 100 short pages of scarce and fragmented narrative, he writes about the demise of God and loss of humanity, which is reflected in the inversion of the father son relationship as Wiesel’s father’s gradually declines into a state of despair and Elie becomes his indignant caregiver.
