Night: THE END

This quote illustrates the impact that the holocaust affected many human beings, who unfortunately had to live through this. The holocaust not only murdered many physical human bodies, but what is worst, the holocaust murdered many souls.

When I finished the book, I realized that this not only affected the past, but has affected the present and I believe that it will affect the future.

While meditating about Night, I got to my own conclusion of why the book is named Night, the Bible begins with the creation of earth. God’s first thing to do is to create light. In the book, darkness and night symbolizes a world without God`s presence. As it is evident throughout the book, all the suffering and when Elie starts doubting God, it all happened at night.

This book was the one that caused the most impression in me because it is different than other books. It is narrated as an autobiography, not another story to tell. I am going to leave you with the same question as before,

WHY?
