OR blog #7

I just read section seven of Night by Elie Wiesel. In this section the prisoners arrive at the Gleiwitz camp. When they arrive Eliezer and his father and all the other prisoners get thrown on top of each other on the ground. Eliezer notices that he is lying on top of Juliek, the musician who befriended him in Buna. Once he finds some breathing room he calls for his father and discovers that he is near. Eliezer fell asleep to Juliek's violin playing and when he wakes in the morning he finds Juliek dead. After 3 days without bread or water, there is another selection which his father is chosen to stand with those condemned to die, Eliezer runs after him. Both Eliezer and his father are able to sneak back over to the other side. The prisoners are taken to a field, where a train of roofless cattle cars comes to pick them up. The train travels for ten days and nights, and the Jews go unfed, living on snow. These are some events that happened in section seven.
