“Ready or not, here I come.” The enticing story written by Jane Yolen, The Devil's Arithmetic, is very comparable and same to the movie. There are many contrast to both the Film, and the narrative, though. There are little small things in the narrative story that almost make it better, but the movie has a lot more gruesome details. They are both very good.
The book The Devil’s Arithmetic was written by Jane Yolen and was published in November of 1988. The Movie was made and available on March 28, 1999. The plot and the Literary analysis in both the Book and the Movie is quite similar. In the beginning, Hannah is dreading the fact that she has to go to her Family's Seder. At the seder, she opens the door for Elijah, and she teleports to Poland and the 1940’s. She is Teleported to her relatives house back in time. …show more content…
Hannah is very different in the movie. In the movie, she is tempted to get a tattoo with her friends, and she is in her late teens. In the book, she is only 13, and is not influenced in that way. She also has a taste for boys in the movie that we do not see in the book, because in the book it focuses on Shmuel’s love life. In the movie, multiple people were excluded, and not incorporated in. An example of this would be Gitl. She was an aunt of Chaya, and she lives all throughout the Holocaust, and survived the terrible thing that had occurred. Also, some other characters that were not put into the film were Yitzchak, Tzipporah, and Reuven. These would have been the butcher, and his two kids. The plot of the story Is very different. When she is teleported back in time, she arrives at the house of Rivka, who is her cousin, but in the book, she arrives at the house of Gitl. So, in the movie, Rivka is actually Hannah’s cousin, but in the book, she is not, she was in the camp for about a year, along with Wolfe, which he is not even in the movie, and he is actually Grandpa
