Elie Wiesel’s Night contains three good examples of imagery. One example is in chapter 2. A second example is in chapter 3. The best example of all is in chapter 4. The first example is in chapter 2. Elie Wiesel writes “ Lying down was not an option, nor could we all sit down “(23). The image that is put into the reader's mind is a huge crowd of people in a tightly confined space. The second example of imagery is in chapter 3 of the novel. Elie Wiesel writes “ Dozen of inmates were there to receive us, sticks in hand, striking anywhere, anyone, with no reason “ Strip! Hurry up strip! Ruas! Hold onto only your belt and shoes “ (35). The image put into the reader's head is both disturbing, cruel, and painful.
