"Our eyes opened. Too late." page 23. This to me is showing me a recurring theme. The theme is to do with eyes. Multiple time in the story it talks about peoples eyes.I think it means that the people realized what was actually happening but it was to late for them to do anything. This was around when they were in the train car and discovered where they were going.

# data[].attributes.body
This is where the Jews were all in the train cars and that is where they stopped. They were then told that they were under the order of the German army. Although this was just a stop and were still in the cars for a long time with little to no food and water.

# data[].attributes.body
This is were the Jews were sent. They were of said that this would be a place they could work and be with there family. Although when they got there were weird people dressed in striped jackets and black pants waiting for them. When they stepped out of the car they smelled burning and in front of them was the flames the woman kept talking about .

"Day after day, night after night, he went from one Jewish house to the next, telling his story and that of Malka, the young girl who lay dying for three days, and that of Tobie, the tailor who begged to die before his sons were killed." (page 7) I believe that Moishe is very brave. He went though such horrible stuff that he then instead of leaving and getting away from the Germans, he came back to warn his people and try to save them. I feel that takes a lot of compaction and that he is very tough. Although he then starts losing hope that they will believe I still feel that he is a good man for trying to help his people instead of being selfish.

This text evidence is showing a simile. The text says "Physically, he was as awkward as a clown" (1). This means that sense no one believed him he was like a clown or outcast. I feel that that made him see himself as a clown because everyone thought he was crazy.

Quote that stand out to me and explanation

# data[].attributes.body
"Hey, kid, how old are you?" The man interrogating me was an inmate. I could not see his face, but his voice was weary and warm. "Fifteen." "No. You're eighteen."

"But I'm not," I said. "I'm fifteen." "Fool. Listen to what I say." Then he asked my father, who answered: "I'm fifty." "No." The man now sounded angry. "Not fifty. You're forty. Do you hear? Eighteen and forty." ( Page 30). This quote stand out to me because it shows me how much the inmate cared about the Elie and the other people who had just got to the camp. Also shows me how Elie and his father did not understand that they had to lie about themselves in order for them to not die or be used as a "testdumby" for the doctor. In my opinion this is changing more about themselves and making them less like themselves. Ever though the man was trying to help them they and that this was not really taking away there humanity, I still think in a way it changed them and how they were as people.

This text shows a metaphor. Elie Wiesel says "A weight lifted from my heart" ( page 32). This is showing it is a metaphor because it is saying that all the fear that he had about being taken from the doctor was gone now that he had not been picked. The fear going is the example of the weight bring lifted and that is what makes it a metaphor. I feel that Wiesel used this example of figurative language to show how scared he was and to really express how extreme his feeling were at the time.

The text states "I could not believe that human beings were being burned in our

times; the world would never tolerate such crime..." ( page 33). This to me shows me that Elie didn't really know what was happening to all the people that got sent to the camps. It also shows me that all the rumors and what Moishe the beetle had said was finally hitting Elie that they were actually true. He also explains to me that he did not think that people of his time would do that and why the world had come to this. I totally agree with him it was horrible that people would do this and also something else that stands out to me is that I feel that the people in charge of running the camp and the solider had also lost some of there humanity. I say that because it is not normal for people to just start killing people and for people to start doing that they had to have lost there voice in the world and were doing as they were told. It is just something I feel that even though they did those horrible things, I also feel they would of had to have lost some humanity for them to just listen to one guy telling them to kill all these innocent people.

Wiesel said, "You...you...you..." They pointed their fingers, the way one might choose cattle, or merchandise" ( page 49). This to me is a possible theme because back in the story when they were at the first camp the soldiers took them people who had experience in traits or certain skills. Now at Bung they are picking the men off of how string they are or which department they think they will be the best suited for. I feel that the soldier only cared about those people and no long looked at them like people but as slaves. Wiesel compares the soldiers picking the Jews as if they were picking cow, and I feel that is a great way to explain how they were being picked. If you were stronger or smarter you were no longer just doing the same job instead you were doing different jobs that would be more fit for the skills you have.

Elie says "Their parents,like mine, had not had the courage to sell everything and emigrate while there was still time" ( page 50/51). My reaction to this was that again Elie and the two brother had realized what had happened and that they should've left before bad things happened to them. It also shows me that all of the boys parents had hope and faith and believed that nothing of what people were saying would actually happen to them. I feel that before all this happened they still had there humanity which would make them thing that people were crazy saying things like that and that people in there time would never do such horrible things.

While at Bung Elie was sent to the dentist to get his teeth pulled because it was a gold tooth. This shows me that the Germans wanted to take anything they could away from the Jews and it dint matter at what cost it was to the Jews. Anything that the Germans thought was value to them they would take it. They took anything and everything the Jews had and made them like prisons with no rights at all.

While Elie ans his father is at Bung they are first put in the same bunk, but later on down the road they get separated from each other. Elie gets transferred to the construction one. He there has to work 12 hours a day, hauling heavy slabs of stone. This to me is a conflict because he is now away from his father, which is the only thing that is now giving him hope. Without his father with him, he will loss the hope he need to survive threw there horrible times. I feel that if something were to happen to Elies father then he would not know right away or may not even find out what would happen to him.

Elie says, "And most important, don't be afraid!"
That was a piece of advice we would have loved to be able to follow" (page 71). This quote stands out to me because it shows me that Elie wanted to believe but just didn't have the energy to. He has been threw so much in the time he has been in the camps. I could tell that he was trying to not give up but was losing hope in god as he lost his humanity. I feel that Elie has changed so much and this is a key example of how losing his humanity is starting to have a big affect on him.

Elie says on Jewish New Year that he will no longer accept God's silence. This to me shows me that threw everything he has been through he was thinking that god would come and save them all. Although after so long he then gives up on god for not helping them threw everything they had been though. I also believe that Elie is accepting his life in the camp now and is just living for his next meal. That is all I feel he lives for anymore not god, or even his father at this point.

Wiesel says, ¨I had no right to let myself die.What would he do without me? I was has sole support¨ (page 87). During this time in the story is when Elie and his father and all the other Jews are evacuating the camp with the SS officers. They have been running for a long time and are very tired. In that moment in time Elie is thinking about giving up, stop running. I feel that the only thing that keep him running is being with his father. He has stayed with his father threw everything and why stop that now. I also feel that this was a very hard challenge for Elie to overcome. Finally they stopped walking and just fell in the snow. I feel that they did not care that it was snow they just wanted to stop running.

When they were on the train, and they would stop to throw out all the dead. I feel that this was wrong of them, they had no compaction for the people and i feel the soldiers did not have any humanity at this time. I also feel that Elie had a lot of emotions going threw his head when he had to slap his father to show that he was not dead. I know that if i had to slap my father it would upset me. Although with everything that has happened I dont know if Elie would have affected because he had been and seen so much.

"I was no longer arguing with him but with death itself." (page 105) Elie says this when he is fighting with his dad to get up and not to rest. Elie dad just wants to give up he has no more strength. Elie was trying to get his father to move. I feel that this was a turning point because this is when Elie knew his father wanted to die. I think that after this Elie stopped trying because he knew his father was going to die. He had been through so much with his father but he had to  accept that his father could not fight anymore.

"I spend my days in total idleness. With only one desire: to eat, I no longer thought of my father, or my mother" (page 113). This to me stands out because threw the hole story he has had hope because of his family and now he has just given up. Now he is only worried about eating and himself, he no longer thinks about his family. In the beginning he wanted to be with his family but now he just wants to be ok. I feel that this is him showing how much humanity he had really lost.

"I did not weep, and it pained me that I could not weep.But I was out of tears" (page 112). This to me is very sad because it shows that he had no emotions when his father died. Usually someone would be sad that there father died but Elie had no emotions. The sad thing is that Elie knew that he should be sad and cry but he just couldn't do it. I also feel that what he had been though had a lot to do with how he reacted to things.
