Assignment #1 The preface of //Night//


Elie Wiesel wrote the book //And the World Remained Silent,// which describes his life during the holocaust. Wiesel believed that by him surviving, that he needed to give some meaning to his survival. He wanted people to know that the holocaust wasn’t just a hoax or a simple story, but that this event in history really happened. Even though having a book about this horrific event, Wiesel was worried that some things in his book might be superfluous. To him substance was the only thing that mattered. He was more afraid of saying too much than too little. His wife, Marion Wiesel translated //And the World Remained Silent// into the shorter version //Night//. Elie Wiesel is able to show us the pain and sorrow he had to endeavor, during this tragic time.
