Elie was in a new camp called Buna. Elie is now being transferred to a new camp called Buchenwald. Auschwitz Buna Buchenwald The Last Time We Read…
Inscription on front door: Jedem das Seine = Everyone gets what he deserves. Was not a “death camp” like Auschwitz. Most died from malnourishment (not eating enough food) and being over-worked. About 55,000 deaths (25% of the total population). Liberated (freed) on April 4 th Buchenwald
Elie and his father ride a train to their new camp in Buchenwald. People assume Elie’s father is dead because he is not moving. The people on the train fight for bread. Night, Chapter 7
Elie’s father says, “I can’t go on…this is the end…I’m going to die here.” Elie “misplaces” his father and has a revelation. Elie’s father has dysentery (frequent vomiting of blood, diarrhea, etc.) Night, Chapter 8
Elie is called to the barracks to be shot. American’s liberate the camp. Elie looks at himself in a mirror for the first time since the start of the War. Night, Chapter 9

Why or why not? 2.On pg. 96, Mier has a fight with someone over bread. Who is it that he fights with? If Mier fights with this person, what does that say about this character or the situation that he is in? 3.On pg. 101, Elie wishes that he wouldn’t find his father. Re- read this part and ask yourself, would you have thought the same thing? Why or why not? 4.At the end of Chapter 8, Elie claims that he is “free at last.” What does he mean by this? Do you agree with his thinking? Why or why not? Questions
