Holocaust Vs Book Night

412 Words2 Pages

The Learning of The Holocaust The book Night by, Wiesel represented the holocaust. The book was a great way of expressing facts but it was hard for me to really see it.

The movie was much more efficient for me because I am a slow reader and I do not do well with comprehending reading. The movie gave me a quick way of watching and understanding what was going on. It was much faster for me than reading the book. Although the book gave a good accurate presentation, the movie gave me a visual and factual presentation. In the book

Thematically, both characters, Moshi the Beadle and Juliek are linked because they both take part in breaking the silence that represents such a large part of the book Night.
