    The part that I personally found the most sorrowful in Night written by Elie Wiesel is when he and his father get separated from each other due to his father’s death. The bond between the two was unbreakable and they never thought that they would be able to get through it all without each other. They agreed that neither of them would let this bond fade. This is why when Elie and his father do get separated it is so heartbreaking. They had always agreed that they would of died for one another if it

As he reflects upon his horrendous first night in the concentration camp and its lasting effect on his life‚ Wiesel introduces the theme of Eliezer’s spiritual crisis and his loss of faith in God. In its form‚ this passage resembles two significant pieces of literature: Psalm 150‚ from the Bible
