Response For Night By Elie Wiesel

If you were abducted and sent off to a Holocaust concentration camp, would you survive? Night, a novel written by a man who has experienced just that, a man that goes by the name of Elie Wiesel. Elie Wiesel was just an average boy, in an average home. In a couple years, his life changed forever, and he experienced true hell. Nothing was covered up in this story, everything was revealed. A true story, in a first hand account of the horrors of the Holocaust. He wasn’t alone in this journey, his father was there every step of the way. This wasn’t necessarily a good thing, because as Elie was harassed, so was his father. Elie thinks to himself in the novel, the last thing you want to see is your father suffering. Day by day, both of them grew weaker. At times in the novel, I thought to myself, “How is Elie still continuing to move through, everything was taken from him.” Elie knew how to pack his feelings into a novel, describing every emotion he had gone through. Elie even stated, “Not a single detail was left out, exactly how I lived it.” This was a novel that kept you reading further, to find out what happened next. This jam packed novel, send you on a roller coaster

The suspense that every chapter left, would lead me to read another. I remember staying up until 2AM a few nights, just to find out what happened next. In the book, Elie was evicted from his final Ghetto, to a packed train. The chapter ended, and the thought came up in the back of my mind, “What happens next.” There were multiple situations in which the chapter had ended, and that thought just creeped on in the back of my mind. I even think that was the thought on Elies mind, when he was experiencing the Holocaust first hand. What happens next, would survive the next day? Questions that needed to be answers, and the suspense me interested in this book. You never realize what actually happens, until you experience it first
