    After reading Long Walk to Forever‚ one may be quick to decide that the title does not represent the story well since it is a fairly short walk the characters embark on when they decide to be together. Upon further investigation‚ the title begins to seem more effective‚ because when one considers how long these characters have known each other‚ it becomes more apparent that the “walk” represents their walk as friends‚ the short “walk” when they decide to be together and the “walk” they embark on afterwards

    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

    selection at Birkenau. It is perhaps Night’s most famous passage‚ notable because it is one of the few moments in the memoir where Eliezer breaks out of the continuous narrative stream with which he tells his tale. 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

    My featured painting today entitled The Night was painted by Max Beckmann during 1918 and 1919. It is housed at the Kunstammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen‚ Dusseldorf. This is an early example of Beckmann’s grotesque and appalling visionary paintings with its misshapen figures. Before us we have an overcrowded room in a modern city. Beckman himself said he wanted this work to be looked upon as a large modern history painting tinged with a sense of evil. Three men have invaded the room and are terrorising
