What does Eliezer’s experience in the hospital underscore?In the fourth chapter of his memoir of life in the German concentration camps, Night, by Elie Wiesel describes a heartbreaking scene in which a beautiful young boy, a “pipel,” is hanged along with two men for the crime of sabotage. The Gestapo, the Nazi’s secret police organization, accused these three individuals, including the boy, of sabotaging an electrical plant that provided power to the prison camp in which they were being held. Their death sentence was carried out in front of the assembled inmates.
