However, Night’s use of descriptive language helps readers picture some of the scenes Wiesel witnessed. When he describes the scene, he witnessed on the way to Buchenwald, it paints a clear picture of the widespread death facing the Jewish prisoners. For students to deeply understand the Holocaust as a whole it is important to understand the events that take place.…
