Elie Wiesel's Night as Insight Into the Holocaust

Night has been described as a novel as well as a memoir. The reality probably lies somewhere in between. Certainly, It depicts actual events occurring in Europe during the time that historians would forever call "The Holocaust," and many of Wiesel's own experiences are recorded in the book. It is not certain, how much, if any, of the story is untrue, however, and therefore, though many refer to Night as a memoir, technically, it cannot be described as such. For the purposes of this paper, however, it will be assumed that Night is in fact a memoir, and Wiesel's character, Eliezer is truly based on the writer and his experiences.

That said, obvious comparisons can be made about this work, and other works surrounding the theme of Holocaust survivalùmost notably, and perhaps at the forefront of the audience's mind, is of course, The Diary of Anne Frank.
