Compare And Contrast Ender's Game And Night

One of the conflicts that he has with his dad is in the beginning of the book when he feels that his dad doesn’t pay enough attention to him. “My father was occupied with his business and the doings in the community” (Wiesel 18). He feels that his father cares more about other people in the community more than he care about him. This made Elie feel melancholy and isolated.

     Eli has a definite change emotionally. He thinks about the things he would never consider if he was not in Auschwitz. For example, on page 102, Elie says, “I gave him what was left of my soup, But it was with a heavy heart. I felt that I was giving it up to him against my will.” In the beginning, it was as if Elie would do anything for his father. After all, his father was older and it was Elie’s turn to look after him. After a while, his father seems like almost a burden to him. Elie felt obligated to give him the rest of his food, but if given the choice, he probably would not have given it up easily.

Both books can be considered “coming of age” subject matter. How do Elie and Liesel change?

The first similarity is the rules and regulations that these people are living with. In Fahrenheit 451 there were rules that any person who had any type of book in their possession were to be imprisoned or even killed in some circumstances. These rules were to protect the government from being overthrown by the fantasies that these books create and give some type of a better life for the people. Night was a story about a Holocaust survivor. Elie and his father had been brighten to a concentration camp where they had lived under a harsh environment. The Nazi government had created strict rules that the ss officers had to enforce. Some of these rules were to treat the

In the story Elie was whipped savagely by the Kapo, and all he can think about is his father. Later in the new camp Elie's father is giving up on life and Elie tries to make him move. There is an allied air raid and for the first time Elie leave his father.(wiesel pg. 106) This proves he finally gave up on his father. He started off in the story really caring about his father sacrificing his own safety just so he could stay close to him. After his father was struck ill in the new camp he gave up on him. In the story Elie wanted to keep his shoes even if that meant he would get tormented even more. This show he has a very strong will and loves things that give him a glimmer of hope. At the end when his father died he stopped caring and lost all hope in surviving the

The similarities of the book are very simple and easy to point out. In both works, they cover the same events in

The book takes place during the span of World War II, and continues through Elie’s perspective, as a prisoner, persecuted due to his religion as a Jewish student. The first main plot line is when Elie and his family are taken from their happy, peaceful lives in the small town of Sighet Transylvania, and are put into a

To Begin, on the story Night many themes were developed like “inhumanity” and “guilt and inaction”. Inhumanity was the major one in both the movie and the novel because of the horrible things each of the characters experiences while in the concentration camp and even outside of it. For example, while Elie was in the concentration camp he experienced things like starvation and horrible beatings. He was on the level of extreme mistreatment. This especially shown when Elie was forced to go on a death march and says, “Cursed and prodded by the SS and whipped by the wind, the prisoners march. The guards yell at them to go faster and they begin to run. They hear explosions from time to time: the SS have orders to shoot anyone who can't keep up the pace.” This is similar to the movie because while Bruno was in the camp

became lost and had no family to call his own. The bond Elie and his father shared was so

To start off with their different personalities. In the beginning of Night Elie was a religious little kid who wanted to know everything about his religion. He was very kind and listened to his parents. Soon after being separated from his mom he began to change. He became more independent. Although he still took care of his dad he didn't

The book goes on to display the role and environment of Elie. In Elies community, they had a hope of safety and satisfaction of believing that the war would not reach them and that they would remain untouched. The story jumps right

Although the fathers in both stories are important, they differ in many ways. Mr. Wiesel was a very weak, fragile man for most of the book, while Mr. Frank tries to be the tough guy, who tries to bring hope to the other residents of the Annex. Elie sees his dad as a hero at the beginning of the

Ender and Night contain similar themes throughout the story that are important for the reader to understand. Ender was trained for a war and at a young age, Ellie was a young kid in the holocaust, based off the real life event, and survived. They have comparable parts in their story.

To relate to the book, Ender is a young boy put into a new environment. I can relate to this because when I

I am currently reading the book Ender's game by, Orson Scott Card. I am really enjoying this book. This book is exiting, full of action, and does not get boring. This book has a movie, and I have seen it, so I can relate to the movie as I am reading the book. I really like being able to relate to the movie as I am reading because if I get confused I can just think back to what happened in the movie. I have noticed that the main character, Ender and his brother Peter do not get along very well. I inferred this statement based on the statement, “ I could kill you like this, Peter whispered. Just press and press until you're dead.” (card12) I am not sure why Ender's brother Peter treats him like an outsider, but his sister has
