Long Answer
1. Death seems to be following Wiesel’s father at the end of book. Wiesel notes that he feels as if he is arguing with death (as opposed to his father) and that “he can no longer elude Death” as his father’s state weakens. Another example is when Wiesel sees his reflection in a mirror in 1945: He sees a corpse staring back at him. (Various chapters)
2. The style of the narration is simple and straightforward, even as Wiesel describes horrific events and devastating losses. The effect is paradoxically to emphasize the horror, because the reader’s emotional and moral response fills the space. (Various chapters)
