During his time in captivity, Elie Wiesel experienced the death of his innocence, faith, and sense of normalcy. The horrors he witnessed and the suffering he endured had a profound impact on his psyche, leading to the loss of his trust in humanity and in God.
Elie Wiesel's father did not die during the death march. He died after the death march, in Buchenwald. He died from dysentery (also, starvation and exhaustion). In Night, Elie said that his father was suffering from dysentery, and had kept asking for water, when one of the guards hit him over the head with a truncheon, and by morning he was dead.
