1. Contrasts and Contradictions
Pg# 82 You learn the sick left behind in the evacuation were liberated normally, with none of them dying, unexpected, as the SS were notorious for killing sick Jews. I have absolutely NO IDEA why they did this. Probably they didn't want to waste ammo. 2. Again and again Pg# 100-102 people are repeatedly throwing food into the train cars, and watching the escalating fight for whatever crumbs they were. These pages chronicle the death that happened again and again from the peoples lack of what they need. I think the author brought up multiple examples to convey the result of what the people would do whenever any bread or other crumbs were thrown in the cattle cars. 3. Words of The Wiser Pg# 110-111 In this section the Blockalteste tells Eliezer to give up on his sick and dying father (taking his rations to confirm his own survival, as he sees there is nothing more that can be done for Father) and telling Eliezer "Each of us lives and dies alone." It affected the character by having him subconsciously agree, feeling guilty, and then helping his father more.
