    Say More with Less “Night” by Eliezer Wiesel is a powerful novel‚ yet it received backlash for not going into detail about the Jew’s horrific experiences while at concentration camps. Critics say that the material could have been even more graphic than it already was in order to display the true horrors the Jews experienced.

    Night was an actual person’s experience at the concentration camps‚ which is why I probably felt like I understood and learned more. The first thing that I learned was about how cruel the Nazis were. The Nazis made sure that concentration camps weren’t talked about so that it would be easier to get all the Jews there.

    The Terrible Things by Eve Bunting‚ follows the theme of impending doom but no one wanting to believe it. We also view this theme in Elie Wiesel’s Night and Martin Niemoller’s First They Came For The Communists. In Eve Buntings interpretation of the Holocaust they show that even though the terrible things kept coming and taking animals away‚ the other animals didn’t worry because it wasn’t them. We see this become apparent on page four. The terrible things came for‚ ¨...Every creature with feathers

Whenever a survivor would leave the stage the audience
