    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. The memoir tells more than just a story: it tells of the loss of spirit, faith the horror of death and continuing to live with the horrible memoires that continue to haunt…

    The Book Night was intended to teach its readers the sorrow, horrors, and personal experiences of Elie Wiesel and the Holocaust itself. My poem has 1-2 titles and a couple of words and symbols to summarize the important symbols and representations of each chapter. I believe my poem does properly convey the message of the memoir. I can easily identify how smushed each Jew had to be to the millions of others, the rations of bread and the importantoce of soup made, the pipel boy or their Gods execution, and the immense loss of hope, and resurgance of it.…

    Elie Wiesel's Night is used to show the atrocities that were committed during the Holocaust. Many of these started with the dehumanization of Eliezer and the Jews around him. The first experience of dehumanization that Eliezer experiences at night is as Germans enter Siquet, moving them into ghettos. At this point, Eliezer had no prior experience of dehumanization by the Germans, or anyone else. For this reason, Eliezer maintains hope for a future in his hometown remarking that throughout the ghettos "the atmosphere was oddly peaceful and reassuring."…
