In the novel Night, by Elie Wiesal introduces readers to many themes throughout Elie's long journey and his miraculous survival of one of the most difficult experiences known to man. The major theme throughout the story is Elijah's struggle to maintain any sort of faith in God or a God-like figure. Meeting Elijah at the beginning, we see that God is a constant in this young boy's life. He even said, “Why did I pray? . . . Why did I live? Why did I breathe? (Wiesal) Here we see that there is no doubt about his faith in God and how strong it was. But after some experiences during the Holocaust, it becomes clear that his "faith" in God seems to be a lesson every day. After his first days in the camps, Elie wonders how God could make people's lives so terrible. The cruelty he witnessed and the trials he faced impacted his faith and beliefs. Questioning is fundamental to the idea of ​​faith and belief in God. The Holocaust forced Elijah to ask terrible questions about good and evil and whether God really existed. But the very fact that he asks these questions shows his true belief in God. So Elijah questioned whether he was truly faithful to God, but in doing so he soon realized that questioning belief let him know that God was really there. The next theme that became apparent throughout the story was silence. Even if we don't always see it throughout this book, the silence is always there. For example, when Elijah asks his fellow prisoners, where is God? At this moment, everyone fell silent. Everyone thought the same thing, how could such a powerful man leave something... middle of paper...... g. But after reading this novel and wondering why Wiesal chose Night as his title, I finally got my idea. This might be far-fetched, and maybe even completely wrong, but I think the title party is due to several reasons. One theme was silence, I think the night serves as silence, every night it's silent outside, everyone is sleeping and it's mostly still and noiseless. I also believe that night serves as darkness, as in the dark side of this world. The Holocaust is known to be one of the most difficult times ever lived. Nighttime is also the time for dreaming, and when most people dream, they dream of the happiest place they could be. It was the only time these people were happy, there dreams kept them alive. So this might be a far-fetched idea, but I think the word night sums up a lot of different aspects of this book. And for that, I think it was an appropriate title.
