“Once upon a time there was a wife and mother one too many times” (Godwin 39). This short story begins with the famous opening, once upon a time, which foreshadows that the story line will be similar to a fairy tale. It raises expectations for the story that all will be magical and end happily. A typical modern-day fairy tale is that of a distressed character who overcomes an obstacle, falls in love with prince charming, and they ride off into the sunset; living happily ever after never to be heard from again. Godwin however, puts an unexpected twist on “A Sorrowful Woman”. This short story is a tale about what can happen when everyday roles take over our identity. Ultimately, this short story challenges societal expectations of marriage

In the story Night written by Elie Wiesel, The neighbors near the camps did not ever really care about the Jews since it didn't affect them or since it was such a huge risk that could end their lives. For example, all the people that got off the trains, who yelled and cried and all the bullets that were shot with the nasty smell of burnt flesh, yet no one acted like that ever happened and just lived like it was just another day (30).This quote shows just how bad the Jews were affected and treated. This quote also shows how loud they were and how much attention they brought to whoever lived near the camps yet almost no one helped. There was some kind hearted people that did help in some ways like keeping the Jews in their

Lorna Dee Cervantes' poem, “Poema para los Californios Muertos” (“Poem for the Dead Californios”), is a commentary on what happened to the original inhabitants of California when California was still Mexico, and an address to the speaker's dead ancestors.

Eliezer “Elie” Wiesel, a Jewish writer, professor, political activist, Nobel laureate and Holocaust survivor, acknowledged that “There is so much injustice and suffering crying out for our attention: victims of hunger, of racism, and political persecution, writers and poets, prisoners in so many lands governed by the left and by the right. Human rights are being violated on every continent. More people are oppressed than free.” When the Nazis came to power in Germany in 1933, they believed that the Germans were “racially superior”and that Jews(their biggest enemy) were to be called “inferior.” As the “Final Solution” came, no Jew was safe. The Germans figured every way to get rid of them. One single gunshot wasn't enough. During this

Elie would have that feeling in the future, being that the liberation was coming soon, so he will be able to catch up with other people that would be liberated with him. Before liberation would happen, the resistance movement in the camp decided to act and fight the remaining SS in the camp. By the afternoon of that day, all of the SS had left or was dead. In the light of the resistance taking over the camp, “Around six that day, the first American tank was at the front gates of Buchenwalden” (Wiesel 115). Thankfully, no additional lives would be lost in order to liberate the prisoners. Three days after the liberation, Elie became ill with some form of poisoning. From there, Elie was transferred to a hospital going back and forth from life and death like his father in his last days. Elie ends the book in such a symbolic way that will make the reader remember that the Holocaust made such an immense impact that Elie will not forget how he looked in the mirror afterwards, “From the depths of the mirror, a corpse was contemplating me. The look in his eyes as he gazed at me never left me.” (Wiesel 115).
