    Elie Wiesel’s Night teaches about the Holocaust from the perspective of a Jewish boy named Eliezer. Reading and analyzing Night has conveyed points about the Holocaust that differ from topics that I have studied in the past. The main point of my analyzation of Night is the dehumanization of the Nazis’ victims, mainly in concentration camps. Many past Holocaust books and movies that I have studied focus more on the events that happen before the concentration camps, but Night takes place almost entirely in the camps. It helps me to see the Holocaust from a different perspective than the one that I have been seeing it from every year.…

    The Book Night was intended to teach its readers the sorrow, horrors, and personal experiences of Elie Wiesel and the Holocaust itself. My poem has 1-2 titles and a couple of words and symbols to summarize the important symbols and representations of each chapter. I believe my poem does properly convey the message of the memoir.

    In Mark Haddon’s novel The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, an attempt at the Bildungsroman genre is made, by employing many of the characteristics of this genre. Many argue that this novel is not a true Bildungsroman however, I will argue that it is, since it contains almost all of the key aspects of this genre, despite the slight twist near the end. I believe that this novel fits the genre of Bildungsroman and demonstrates the coming of age of Christopher through his various experiences in his hometown, as well as on his journey to find his mother. In this essay I will discuss the main components of Bildungsroman: emotional loss, a journey, and transformation and the way in which they are displayed in this novel through Christopher.…

It is a riveting novel that centers on a boy, lost in the middle of the pacific ocean with nothing but his wits, his will, and a four hundred and fifty pound bengal tiger.…
