Night
You would think that a fifteen year old who watched his mum and sister walk off to the gas chambers would loose complete faith in god forever, this is not so for Elie Wiesel. Although Elie’s experience in the camps at Auschwitz changes him in the courses of the events related in ‘Night’, the one thing that doesn’t completely change is his faith in god even though he looses all traditional beliefs. Other areas in which Elie changes is his physical appearance, his maturity level, his ambitions and his relationship with his father. The book ‘Night’ is an autobiography about a young boy and his time the concentration camps and the horrific events in which he lived through. Before the camps Elie was a young healthy intelligent boy who showed no signs of any illness, however this all changed due to his time at the concentration camps. At the end of the book Elie looks in a mirror after several years, he explained how when he looked in the mirror a corps gazed back at him. This is due to the appalling food they were given. Many days they would go without food and would have to eat snow for water. There were many occasions such as on the trains in which they would kill each other for a piece of bread.
