Each day was full of horror experiences for each individuals. The Jews got expelled from the small ghetto, Eliezer and his family members and even other people from their community were thrown in some cattle cars. They had to stay in those cattle cars for three long nights. Whenever Eliezer arrived in Buchenwald after being in that car for three long night Eliezer is again being hunted by the familiar fear, friendly and then he clutches his father’s hand. “I pinched myself: Was I still alive? Was I awake? How was it possible that men, women,and children were being burned and that the world kept silent” (Wiesel 32). Jew’s were getting lashes of the whip on there body, and they could not feel nothing but those whips. These people would never have imagined a day full of torture by others. Jew’s were becoming more upset each day because of the harshness on them. During the Holocaust many people fell sick and that resulted in death rate to increase. “The march from Buna to Buchenwald takes place in blackness, amid glacial winds and falling snow.” (Fine 54).

Hunger was one of the greatest problems. The Nazis did not provide them with sufficient nutrition to carry out heavy manual work. Many people from the group died because of starvation or illnesses brought on by lack of nutrition. The others who were very weak due to lack of food, were then murdered in the gas chambers. The reason they were murder because they did not have the ability to finish their task on timely manner. The life of Jewish people changed during and after the Holocaust period. They endured torture, and were getting treated as slaves even if they were not one. “So the Jews were forced to dig huge trenches” (Wiesel 6). …show more content…
