Man's Inhumanity to Man - As discussed above, Night focuses extensively on Eliezer's struggle with his faith. Eliezer discusses this struggle in terms of his loss of faith in God, but really it is a loss of faith in everything around him. After experiencing such horror and cruelty in the world, the world no longer makes sense to Eliezer. This disillusionment is the result of his painful experience with Nazi persecution, but it is also the result of the cruelty he sees fellow prisoners inflict upon each other. Eliezer even becomes aware of the cruelty of which he himself is capable. His entire experience in the war shows him how profanely horribly people can treat one another—a revelation that troubles him deeply.
