The events that occurred to him had scared him so much that the man he saw in the mirror wasn’t him, but one who had been drained of life that looked lifeless from the events occurred in the concentration camps. He was weak and this whole passage embodies his weakness and the whole point of the concentration camps.

Before, Elie and his family were taken to a concentration camp, he did his religious Judaism studies at a yeshiva.

Elie and his father were sent Buna Werke, a labor camp that was apart of Auschwitz were he and his father worked in horrible conditions.
Elie was held captive in concentration camps from 1944-1945. During his time in the concentration camps, he became grateful for what he had, overcame countless obstacles, and more importantly kept fighting until he was free.

This lesson can be learned when Elie says, “After my father’s death, nothing could touch me any more”(109).
This horrid process happened many times throughout Elie’s stay at Auschwitz. The Wiesel family was separated as soon as they had arrived. Women were forced one direction, while the men the other. Elie’s mother and sisters went to the right, while Elie and his father went to the left. Elie never saw his mother and sisters again after that; he never even had the chance to say goodbye.
Elie Wiesel voiced his emotions and thoughts of the horrors done to Jewish people during World War II whilst developing his claim. Wiesel “remember[s] his bewilderment,” “his astonishment,” and “his anguish” when he saw they were dropped into the ghetto to become slaves and to be slaughtered. He repeats the words “I remember” because he and the world, especially those who suffered in the ghettos and camps, would never be able to forget how innocent suffered. Consequently, he emphasized that “no one” has the right to advocate for the dead. Like many other people in the world, he lost his family during the war.
