The book "Night" by Elie Wiesel is a tragic and beautiful story, taking place during the Holocaust, about the young author's experience in the Nazi concentration camp with his father. As you follow this boy's haunting yet tense journey, you will either be filled with anger and sadness. There's always something happening in every chapter. Some of which are brutal and cruel. But most of the events are heart-breaking, especially the bond between the author and his father; they only had each other. Every character, even the side and background characters, leave an emotional impact because it is written in very distinct detail that allows you, as the reader, to feel their pain and agony.
