Human nature is a very complicated and disputed topic‚ and the memoir Night by Elie Wiesel brings up several questions about what humanity is capable of. The act of killing the young pipel is far more inhuman than the murder of one’s own father for bread‚ killing for food is a basic survival instinct‚ driven by extreme circumstances and starvation‚ killing the young boy is simply cruel.
