The truth is I dont like reading but the books in this subject are the only books I enjoy reading. I found it very interesting to now of the History of the Second World War and the best way is by reading.
This interesting novel starts with a story from Moshe the Beadle. He tells all the Jews of Sighet what the Nazis were doing around Europe to Jews to create the perfect raise. The problem was that nobody believed him, they thaugh he was crazy and that this had never and that it would never happen. If the Siget people had just believed him and run away from Hungary nothing of what happened later would of happened. I really like the quote that says "The German wont get as far as this" because this is what all the world thaugh of the Nazis but where proven wrong when they were able to invade almost all Europe.
Eliezer tells his story threw this war and he begins when the Nazis create the Ghetto in Sighet. The life in the Ghetto was the same as in the past , the only difference was they had to use a star every day. The days passed as normal but everything changed when Germans announced that they would transported the Jews to concentration camps. They were pt in cattle wagons and sent to Auschwits in Poland. They were treated in extreme bad conditions during the trajectory to Poland.
Eliezer was in the wagon with his father and 6 more people including Madam Schachter and his son. During all the way to Poland this women stared screaming " The fire! The furnace! Look over there!" so the rest of the wagon thauth that she was totally crazy, but she really wasn't... You will see in the future why. At the moment of reaching Auschwitz Elizer had to say he was 18 and that he was a very good farmer to maintain his life and to be able to stay with his father. Then a S.S person ho had death painted in his eyes said the most impacting sentence I have ever read in my life "Do you see that chimney over there? See it? Do you see those flames? Over there-that's were you're going to be taken. That's your grave, over there. Haven't you realized it yet? You dumb bastards, don't you understand anything? You're going to be burned. Frizzled away. Turned into ashes." This was true the Jews were treated as rats they were sent to o the flames to be burned till death, how could this be possible? After all what all what Madam Schachter had said wasn't at all nuts, she was having kind of a premonition of what was going to happen in the future.
After that horrible moment Eizer was sent with his father and other Jews to another place, they thaugh they were going to the crematory but they were wrong. They were taken to a place in witch they took showers and then were given uniforms. They were treated as pigs by the Germans, they lived in bad conditions and they had to eat a disgusting soup that after the third day in the camp tasted like glory.
I am really liking this novel I thing that Eizer is going to survive but that sadly his father will not make it...
