Throughout his novel Into the Wild, Jon Krakauer’s own perspectives shape the way he tells the story of Chris McCandless. Krakauer’s writing style allows for varying interpretations of the primary motivations of his protagonist, ranging from sympathizing with Chris to perceiving him as selfish. This is especially evident when Krakauer describes an interview with Walt McCandless about his son’s death seven weeks after Chris’ body was found. However, various interpretations of Krakauer’s work can lead to differing points of view on the subject. While Krakauer’s description of Walt’s emotional reaction to his son’s death could indicate Chris’ selfishness in abandoning his family, it could also serve to justify Chris’ decision to embark on his journey into the Alaskan wilderness.

Around 6 million Jews were murdered during the Holocaust. Elie Wiesel was one of the few that managed to survive this terrifying period of time and wrote a memoir to relay his experiences to the rest of the world. Throughout the memoir Night, faith is a commonly explored theme. Faith is used as a marker showing the fluctuating levels of humanity and caring in Elie and the other Jews.

In the memoir Night, the narrator Elie Wiesel recounts a moment when he started to lose his faith due to his experiences at the concentration camps, for example, ¨ But now, I was no longer able to lament. On the contrary, I felt very strong. I was no longer able to lament God the accused. My eyes had opened and i was alone, terribly alone in a world without God, without man,¨ (Wiesel 68). Wiesel was a very faithful and hopeful boy but due to his experiences in the concentration camp, he lost his faith in God and in others. He believed that there was no God because of the things he would see and the overwhelming inhumanity he would suffer. Two significant themes related to inhumanity discussed in the book Night by Elie Wiesel are loss of faith and becoming closer to loved ones.
