    It is not until her unfortunate murder that Angela's imprisonment gets unraveled. Her distorted emotions are revealed as this relatively unknown young woman's death is investigated. Journalists trample inside Ms. Bari's life without any regards to her in an attempt to solve this murder mystery (17). Angela's body was discovered by the porter of her apartment who is 'astonished that there should be so little blood on the floor'; when he discovers that she is lying on the ground dead after being stabbed several times (18). This is the first clue that Angela is cornered in her own little world. She has little blood, which is regarded as the seat of emotions, and her lack of such nourishment suggests that perhaps she was never nurtured. Furthermore, her cause of death, internal hemorrhage, suggests that those feelings imbedded within her were lost rapidly and uncontrollably (19). The obscure grasp Angela has of her emotions is just one facet of her imprisonment.

    As humans, we require basic necessities, such as food, water, and shelter to survive. But we also need a reason to live.

  • Themes In Elie Wiesel's Night

    851 Words  | 2 Pages

    One of the most significant passages in Elie Wiesel’s autobiography, Night, is when Hitler and the SS started taking control over his hometown, Sighet. While everyone is in denial Elie states, “The Germans were already in our town, the Fascists were already in power, the verdict was already out--and the Jews of Sighet were still smiling” (25). This is significant because it should have caused consternation and made everyone start to panic, but it didn’t do anything. The people of Sighet were still smiling and living out their lives in the same way. This displays how innocent and trusting they were. However, at this point in the autobiography, the German officers haven’t been hostile yet. Elie states, “Their attitude toward their hosts was distant
