Michael, I agree with you on the statement that what his father had said was a big turning point in the tone. In my summary I had put the quote,“The shadows around me roused themselves as if from a deep sleep and left silently in every direction”(Weisel 14). This was a reaction of the people to what his father had said. I believe, judging by the reaction of the community, that his father was looked up to by everyone and when he got scared, everyone followed. I also agree with what you said about the way that the tone was influenced by how safe the people felt with where they were. I did not notice that in the book until you pointed it out. Do you think Eliezer looked up to his father in this way while they were at the camp, or do you think

Night remenaces at the dark times of the holocaust during the Nazi Regime in World War 2. It becomes a powerful text with a powerful message, to let everybody know what he experience and take into account that it should never happen again.
Night is a book where a baby was used as a shooting target. This was one of the first things that started to change Elie Wiesel. Eile Wiesel is the writer and the main character of the book Night. Eile was one of the lucky people who survived the traumatic hardships of the holocaust and who could educate the world about it. Overall, Eile is a dynamic character because his faith, feelings, and mindset changed throughout the book.

Elie was in the concentration camps and went through many events from the time he was forced to go to the ghettos until the last people including him were let free. Elie’s views on God changed his identity after he lost his trust in God and caring towards others. Throughout the memoir Elie along with his father and the other Jews changed due to how they were treated.

Through the time human beings have shown how far could the discrimination and hate go, and the effect that it has done. The book “Night’ ’by Elie Wiesel is a perfect example of this.

“Night” by Elie Wiesel explains and shares the experiences from the eyes of holocaust survivor. Throughout the whole book from start to finish one word to capture the book is inhumane. Elie Wiesel had witnessed what no child should see nor imagine. When Elie reminisces about his parents the horror that he survived will creep back into his mind as will the countless things he encountered. For a relatively happy person (which is me) they might shed a tear or two depending on how emotional they are.

During my eighth grade year in my honors English class, we had to read a novel based on the events that occurred during the Holocaust. I decided on Elie Wiesel’s Night. Wiesel captured his life living as a Jewish follower and his journey through the wretched train car rides and backbreaking work in concentration camps at only fifteen years old. While I was fourteen during the time I had read his novel, it made me realize that Wiesel’s life was on the line, one wrong move and he could be executed at any moment.
Throughout the book Night, Elie has different thoughts and beliefs on his religion and God. With his beliefs the author gives a tone from the way he thinks and believes his religion. The author communicates many different tones throughout chapter 5. One tone from the beginning of the chapter was anger.
