Assignment #1 the Preface of //Night//
= Night = Elie Wiesel, a survivor of the Holocaust wrote many books about his experience going through World War II and the persecution of Jews. One of his books is called //Night//. Wiesel’s main reason to write this book was to try to make sure that nothing like the Holocaust would happen again. Wiesel made sure that the book was not just another record about what happened during World War II, but a book that may change the world so that no one in the future would have to go through what he and millions of other Jews had to go through. Wiesel did not want his survival of Auschwitz to mean nothing. He felt as his job as a witness of the murder and discrimination against Jews, that he must tell the world about it. Wiesel also did not want the Holocaust to be forgotten, and that Hitler’s crimes would be nothing to the world. The Holocaust would never be forgotten if everyone read the book, //Night.//

 Elie was just a religious, teenage boy when he entered the camps. While Elie was in the camps, things became frustrating, and Elie started losing faith in God. Elie also started questioning why God put the Jews through the persecution. Elie's anger is hot as a fire but he is still more silent than a thief. Elie says that the student of the Talmud has been consumed by flames. Elie hates the camps and knows that it has changed him and the people he knew. Wiesel just wants things to go back to the way they were.**
 * Elie Wiesel a survivor of the Holocaust, writes book about his experiences going through the camps.
