Book Reports On Night By Elie Wiesel

The book “Night” was written by an author Elie Wiesel takes place in Europe in the 1940’s. This was during one of the most notorious worlds world wide called world war two. Just like every war many people died and were murdered and was also brought hard times, pain and suffering. The book takes us into the perspective of a little twelve year old boy in the Transylvanian town of sighet named Eliezer. One also important detail that brings all the hardships that come his way to him is the fact that he is part of an Orthodox Jewish family, which made him an enemy to the Germans during this time period.
