The book is an autobiography written by Elie Wiesel who was a jew and was taken to the concentration camp by the Germans and spent a long time in it. Life in concentration camp is very hard. Elie could survive in it is a miracle. It was caused by many reasons.
Food in a concentration camp food was very important. Because not everyone could get enough food to eat and many people were dead of hunger. Elie met many good camp leaders so that he can get more food. He also got a gold crown and one of the camp leaders wanted that, so he always gave Elie more food so that he could get it. Eg: P68 Franek grew kinder. Occasionally, he even gave me extra soup. But that did not last long. A Fortnight later, all the Poles were transferred to another camp. I had lost my crown for nothing.
Elie was lucky, that was also an important factor for him to live. He was always be put in a good camp so that he can get many conveniences and also some camp capitals gave Elie many good suggestions so that he could do right things, he also met some old friends in the concentration camp, so that he would know many things before it happened. He was also luck that he was put together with father. When he was sent to the dentist to pull his gold crown out, he told the dentist that he was ill, and he was accepted to come back later, but by that day, the dentist was banned, so he kept his gold crown by luck.
As I mentioned before he was lucky to be put together with his father so that they could help each other. Many people who worked in the concentration camp knew his father so that they would be good to Elie and his father so they wouldn't have been hurt so much. His father was also the one who support Elie to live. Because of his father, he was willing to live, to take care of his father, and to safe his father in danger, so he could live. His father also gave him things to eat.
Elie was also very willing to live. He loved free, he wanted to leave the concentration camp, so he lived, lived for going out, also he lived for his families, he knew that his families were all alive, so he lived, lived to be together with them again.
