The book night is based in 1944, in the village of Sighet, Romania. When Elie Wiesel's family was put into the ghettos then later deported to Auschwitz. At Auschwitz, Elie and his father, Chiomo are put to work while his mother and three sisters are sent to the death camp. After three weeks Elie and Chiomo are marched to a factory in the Auschwitz complex too sort electrical parts. In 1945 the solders evacuate due to enemy solders approaching the camp. The "prisoners" are sent on a long hard journey and Ellie's father gets sick. Will Elie and his father survive?
The book night is an autobiography written by Elie Wiesel. The book talks about is experiences as a kid during the holocaust. This is my first time reading a biography. I don't usually read these type of book. I thought the book was very interesting and it was surprising that many of these events actually happened. I liked how many event and feeling you could relate to in real life but also some were so hard to relate that you could just imagine. I think one day I might read this book again to get a better understanding of it.
