3/9/2017 0 Comments Night vs. Boy in Striped PJsSome similarities between The Boy in Striped PJs and Night are, they are both set in the 1940's or 50's during the Holocaust. Both are mainly about life in concentration camps and the struggles that go along with that. Shmol and Elie both like to stay near their fathers and when they lose them they are both worried. They both get separated from their families and make up stories on how they got separated. For example in Night Elie and Shlomo tell themselves that the rest of the family if okay but deep down they really know what happened.
My feelings towards the holocaust have changed because now I know more of what happened to these innocent people. I used to think it was a bad time but I didn't comprehend just how badly jews and others were treated. Night really opened my eyes to this because it went further into detail about what actually happened and what these people actually had to go through. The boy in the striped pajamas did a good job of looking at the holocaust from both sides of the story even though it is still a horrible event in history.
