A mere twenty-one years after the utter devastation of World War I, Nazi Germans invaded Poland, breaking their non-aggression pact with the Soviet Union, and plunging the world into yet another global conflict. The carnage of World War II (WWII) was much more widespread than its predecessor, as the war was fought not only throughout Europe, but also in various locations of the Pacific Ocean. Prior to the Nazi occupation of Poland, at the end of World War I, the winning nations had devised a peace treaty, called the Treaty of Versailles, which forced Germany to take responsibility for the war, and punished the country as such.

When reading his novel you get a glimpse of the holocaust from a young survivor’s point of view, with the intricate writing skill of a college professor (Wiesel 3).
