Night Section 4

Section 4 in "Night" was very interesting. Elie has changed so much since the beginning of the book. He doesnt even move when his father is getting beat up. He got mad at his father for not getting out of Ideks way, that would make me mad if someone did that. Its not like his dad had any control over that. Elie also conives his way out of not getting his tooth out, for a while. He says he is sick and the dentist grants him a few days. They dentist is then caught stealing the gold and never seen again. One of the guards then notices the gold and quickly has it removed. I would be very mad if that was me. It would also be very painful, a rusty spoon was used. I also didnt like how he had to watch the hangings.

Yeah, Elie's not the same as he was in the beginning of the book. Now he's less human than he used to be. I don't think that he means to be mean to his father, but he doesn't realize it.

It seams like the camps are dehumanizing everyone, making them more like animals than human. Elie is gradually becoming less human and less human, like when Idek hit his father i agree with you. It's not his fathers fault that he got hit.
