Barber, Lawrence "Critical Analysis of Elie Weisel" The book Dawn concerns about the experiences of a survivor just after the World War who joins the Jewish Underground efforts to form an independent Israeli state. This novel is closely related to the one "Night". The Novel is about a character named Elisha who like Wiesel's life has to live through the concentration camps as a youngster growing up. Elisha was a young Israeli freedom fighter whose assignment was to kill the officer in reprisal for Britain's execution of a Jewish prisoner. She tried to form a free Israeli state, because she was tired of all of the killings going on in the concentration camps and so forth. She like many other Jews would have felt so much more comftorable with peace then all the deaths that were taking place. Throughout the book her voyage is to kill the man that killed a fellow Jewish prisoner for no apparent reason.
