Wiesel’s story changed my outlook on the Holocaust tremendously. At first i really did not know much about the horrific event. Obviously i knew what happened, who the oppressor was, and who the victims were. But i was still unclear on what really happened. Elie Wiesel’s story is just marvelous and quite frankly emotional. After reading his book i really got a good understanding of how the conditions were, how taxing it was on ones body, and how it can really diminish a person. Throughout the story Elie describes the living conditions as just horrible. They were crammed tight into the actual barracks, they were fed just bread and soups(which was more like water), and there was no real heating or air conditioning. There was little to no sanitation
