![]() Today we are going to start a journey together. I am excited to be spending time with you exploring Elie Wiesel's book "Night". This will be my first time looking at the Holocaust with students from a literary viewpoint. At times this will be a very difficult topic for all of us, both from an emotional and an analytical aspect. The road to understanding will be winding, but we will get there. Together. "Never shall I forget that night, the first night in the camp, which has turned my life into one long night, seven times cursed and seven times sealed. Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the little faces of the children, whose bodies I saw turned into wreaths of smoke beneath a silent blue sky. Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever…Never shall I forget these things, even if I am condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never." — Night
