Book Report Night By Elie Wiesel

Eliezer Wiesel and his family were dragged to a concentration camp and they were forced to leave their belongings behind along with the separation of his mother and sisters. Eliezer is the author of the book night. He was born in the town of Sighet, Transylvania. He had a little sister named Tzipora with beautiful blonde hair who most of us assume got put in the gas chambers shortly after her arrival at the camp Auschwitz. “We were to give up all of our valuables or were ordered to be shot on the spot like dogs if we were found with any valuables that we were hiding or that we didn’t give up.” Eliezer and his father were beat and they were forced to march and do hard labor. Eliezer was very lucky that he made it out alive, but unfortunately

All the guards did was beat and assault innocent jews for either no reason or the littlest thing. Eliezer and his father were very lucky if they had a nice guard but that probably only occurred once or twice their whole experience. Sometimes Eliezer had to watch his father get tortured and screamed at. In the book Eliezer stated that his father had to use the restroom so a guard hit him hard in the face and walked off. Eventually the camp turned Eliezer around. Whenever his dad would get beat or tortured he just stood there trying to avoid taking in the the hits and the blows and Eliezer blamed his father for whatever reason they had to hurt him. Some of the guards favored the little boys around 12 and 13 in a sexually way and our only thought is that they made them do sexual things for extra rations of food which is very sad and wrong. There are many Nazis still out there today who needs to earn some respect and realize that jews and others are humans just like they are. Everyone needs to realize that we are all humans and no race or religion should be shamed or treated like a lower species than everyone

They both have to deal with dictators and go through pain and suffering. The jews were put in harsher camps then Minerva and her family, but the thing is Minerva and her family were not actually in a camp but it felt as if they were because there were spies listening to every word they said and every move they made. The book “Night” is also like the book “ Maus” because both of the books have to do with nazis and jews. Eliezer's family and Anjas family both had to go through hard times, hiding, and difficult deaths. The only thing different about the two books is that “Maus” has to do with comparing the jew to rats and nazis to cats and “Night” is the book about the real people. I chose to write about “Night” because it is the book I have recently read and it is the book that has stuck to my head. Overall this book is about what pain, suffering, and depressing times Eliezer and his fellow jews were put through while Hitler was their dictator. No soul on this earth should have to go through what the jews had to go through ever
