Summarize - Book Report/Review Example

Night Night is a book written by Elie Wiesel. In our discussion, we are going to discuss on the summary of the book.Night by Elie Wiesel is a memoir of the Holocaust that tells on the concentration of a camp. The book reflects on the events which began in 1941 and ends in 1945. The book ponders a lot of questions which are answered by Moche who survived the Germany massacre. The Germans at the time were on a mission of getting rid of imperfect people in the world. The Germans in particular wanted to get rid of the Jewish.

In the year 1944, Elie who was twelve by then and was guided by Moche. The Jewish by then were being pushed to ghettos including Elie family. The families had to survive hard economic situations. Basically, families were deported which made them to move to new areas.Their deportation was harsh has in on the third day of the deportation on midnight, they were faced with a horror of flames which had a huge stench of flesh burning. This makes them downtrodden as they would not see the future in them.

Guards with clubs take Elie group through a selection process whereby the best were selected while others facing a grim future. Elie together with his father lie about their ages which makes them to depart to a concentration camp in Auschwitz accompanied by other hardy men. As the events unfold, Elie’s three sisters and their mother disappear into a death camp called Birkenau. At this time, Elie saw how infants were being tossed in a burning bit and this made Elie to rebel against God.On each day, Elie and Chiomo the beird were concerned in keeping themselves health so that they can remain being in the workforce.

The guards are very sadistic that they give them capricious punishment. Elie and his father were forced to march to Buna, where they would sort electronics which were in the electronic warehouse. That happened when they had worked in the previous factory for three weeks. The guards hang a thirteen year old in the presence of Elie and this was the height of servitude. The child eventually died.During the Rosh Hashanah services, Elie grows a morose at a time when he was despairing. In the next moment, the doctors culls Elies father from abler men.

However, Chlome the father of Elie passes a physical examination for the second time which gives him a chance to live. A surgery is conducted on the foot of Elie. Elies father finally succumbed to malnutrition, beating and dysentery when the Russian forces were moving closer to the Nazi camp. Gradually there were only a few survivors. However in April 1945, the camp was liberated, however, Elie was depleted because of food poisoning.I like the book because it highlights the most intimate thoughts and the preciseness of the author by precisely bringing out the story which occurred during world war 11.

The book also gives mature observations of how events unfold.I dislike the book because of the events that portray the Jews as inferior and imperfect and depicting the Germanys as superior human. The occasions where all are not treated equal as the children of God which made some even Elie detest God when he saw a young child being hang. I recommend the book to be read because of its grasp on spirituality and it’s dispensing on spirituality and it’s dispensing of pragmatism and great teachings especially to young people.

It also provides a sustaining guide on how people should face difficult situations.In conclusion, night is a book that unfolds the story of the Germany invasion to the Jewish and taking them as an imperfect people. Work CitedWeisel, Elie. "Night." New York: Hill and Wang (1960). Print.
