Night by Elie Wiesel

Summary:   Elie Wiesel's memoir Night tells his experiences as a young man forced into a Nazi concentration camp and a struggle for survival along with his family. These experiences show the causes and the degree to which the Jewish prisoners in the concentration camp were dehumanized and how many of those prisoners who survived were permanently scarred.


The novel Night is a memoir from the pen of award winning author Elie Wiesel. This book is about the author as a young man and his family who are taken from their home, forced to stay in a Nazi concentration camp and the story of him and his father's struggle for life. I will try to explain how the Nazi's turned the Jewish people and others into nothing more than things. In this essay I will also tell you how the Jewish people somewhat dehumanized themselves and each other. I will also explain the effects the Jews had because of their treatment brought on them by the Nazi's.

Elie Wiesel and his family were forced from their homes by the Nazi soldiers. They were boarded onto trains like animals. They were shipped from their peaceful communities.....
