What Is Inhumanity Theme In Night

In the memoir Night the narrator Elie Wiesel recounts a moment when camps had to be evacuated and prisoners were forced to run in the woods in the snow and many people were killed for being tired.”From time to time, a shot exploded in the darkness. They had orders to shoot anyone who could not sustain the pace.”(Wiesel 85). To run through the woods in the cold with so little food is hard and cruel to make someone go through. This is how Elie Wiesel keeps remembering the recurring nightmare in his head. Two themes that inhumanity can cause in Night are disbelief and becoming closer to loved ones. One theme in Night is that inhumanity can cause disbelief in many people. To start Elie Wiesel witnessed a boy beat his own father for not accomplishing

Elie also started to fear losing his father so did not want to leave his side. “I tightened my grip on my father's hand. The old, familiar fear not to lose him”(Wiesel 104). Both Elie Wiesel and his father created a strong relationship once they saw what the camps were like. They both tried to stay together so they would always be by each others side. In conclusion people started to become closer to loved ones due to inhumanity having fear of losing their family. It is not a normal world when people are forced to run through the woods cold,thirsty, and hungry trying to keep the same pace for so long to not die.”From time to time a shot exploded in the darkness”(Wiesel 85). The memoir Night also demonstrates that inhumanity can cause disbelief and becoming closer to loved ones. The things inhumanity causes are cruel but somehow go unnoticed. When it takes just one moment of inhumanity to bring a family together that just shows you how bad it is.”I tightened my grip on my father's hand. The old familiar fear not to lose him”(Wiesel 104). If people knew what was going on and how many people were dying maybe they would have tried to save everyone
