Task 3: REFLECTIVE/NARRATIVE WRITING: Eli Wisel’s memoir of the Holocaust is both haunting and yet important to read. After reading the selection from Night, write a journal entry (at least a page) that explains your thoughts and feelings about his story.

While the journal is personal, some ideas for things you should write about include:

What images or events particularly stand out from his memoir? How did it make you feel? Use a quote.

What most surprised you? Why?

Why do you think he’s re-telling such a tragic story?
