It is a metaphor for a period in which the protagonists, Europe, and the world entered a seemingly endless darkness. They were confronted with ongoing death and destruction.
"The days were like nights, and the nights left the dregs of their darkness in our souls."
There is a pervasive despair, even at the end of the book. "From the depths of the mirror, a corpse gazed back at me. The look in his eyes, as they stared into mine, has never left me."
Note that Wiesel's memoir of this very long night of Horror was followed by his book, "Dawn", a metaphor for hope and new beginnings.
Elie Wiesel named his novel "Night" to symbolize the darkness and despair experienced during the Holocaust. The title reflects the profound darkness and suffering that engulfed the author and millions of others during that time.
Originally the book was published in Yiddish in 1956 and had the title Un di Velt hot geshvigen (And the World Remained Silent). Two years later a much shorter version of the book appeared in French with the title La Nuit(Night). Night refers to the darkness and the abyss that the author enters.
it is because Eli described the whole time spent at the concentration camp as one long night. we discussed this for a long time in my English class.
I think it's Eliezer's dad.
Eliezer recited the Kaddish in spite of himself as a way to honor his father and as a form of rebellion against the dehumanization he was experiencing in the concentration camp. It was a way for him to hold onto his identity and spirituality amidst the horrors of the Holocaust.
not sure but i heard that they're gonna do 12 in which case, yeah, i think so. xx
Eliezer recruits Moshe the Beadle to teach him about the mysteries and depths of Jewish mysticism, the Kabbalah. Moshe is known for his knowledge and understanding of Jewish spirituality, and Eliezer seeks his guidance to deepen his own spiritual connection.
No i do not think so
i think its a sad novel
i think there is not a movie for the novel beka lamb
I think no because Coraline by Neil Gaiman is a graphic novel...
A murder she wrote
Eliezer's parents and the others in the community think that Moshe was a crazy and mad guy.
