Ch.8/9

Within these two chapters, I noticed Elie's reluctance in taking care of his weak, dying father. At their arrival at the new camp, Elie's father felt he could not muster the strength to survive any longer. And it was saddening to see Elie push his father to stay alive, yet he was very unwilling to take care of him. Elie saw his father's pain and suffering as a nuisance, which struck me. He had become like Rabbi Eliahu' son, just as he had feared.

    Kingsly, it is shocking to know that Elie started treating his father like nuisance like the rabbi's son but we also can't forget that Elie prayed to have strength to not be like the other boy and he lasted a long time until he sort of gave up.
