Elie's family owned a little shop but only Hilda and Bea could help and Elie had to stay in school. Elie wanted to learn the perilous world of mysticism, which is a form of the Jewish religion that only one can study at the age of thirty. Elie's father was not up to discuss the matter much cause the answer that Elie received was not the one he wanted to hear. So Elie found a man named Moshe the Beadle he was a kind, funny and poor normally the people in Sighet would hate poor people that lived on the streets but Moshe was different he was kind and caused no harm. When Elie told Moshe that he wanted to learn about mysticism Moshe looked very surprised that a 12 year old would want an old poor man that sits an a synagogue all day and prays to teach him the mysteries of the mysticism.

The book ends really fast but the red army comes in and saves every one and Elie is the only one left in the family so he goes back to his house to gather up what is left. Only to run into a person he new at the camp at a store and started to talk and remember the story.

Or cut there arm off and let them bleed to death. So Elie got out of the hospital as soon as he could.
