Assignment #1- Preface of //Night//
Elie Wiesel wrote the book //And the world remained silent//, about his experience of being a holocaust survivor. Ellie went into the concentration camp at a young age of 15 and got out a year later. He //wrote And the world remained silent// about 10 years after the holocaust ended. At that time he was an inexperienced writer and didn’t have the knowledge he had when he wrote the second novel, night, and a shortened, translated version of his first novel. In the preface of night he tells the readers why he wrote the novel. He wanted to express to others the horror of the holocaust, and the pain he went through watching his family, old and young men, and especially young children die. He also wrote this novel to make sure that what happened in the holocaust, never happen again. Even though writing this made him relive his pain, he had to do it for the men, women, and children that died in this catastrophe. As he wrote this he was worried about if he could use words that people could understand, that weren’t actually there. He wrote //Night// because at that time he was more of a known man and he was also a more experienced write. He hopes that his writing will prevent another episode like the holocaust.

The holocaust horrifying and fearful dying, lying, crying scary as running from a hungy bear and painful as sticking needles into ur body drowning in the sea fighting in the land of terror

Assignment # 3: Found Poem-

No Reason to Live

The trees were in bloom Our hearts were not He was ruled by delusion without passion or haste I no longer care to live People condemned the same fate we were on our way that person would be shot faces of hell and death They were all smiles mind was empty confidence soared Our terror could no longer be contained an open tomb
