Of all the holocaust stories that I have read so far, this is the most realistic. A rabbi that stops believing in God after what he has seen seems incredible. I like it a lot. I think it's dumb to look to God for salvation and what not after bad things have happened. How can people still say "In God we trust" after 9/11? It's ridiculous.
Eliezer and his father are extremely lucky. They got saved from really tough situations by simply being cunning. It also could've easily led to their deaths, so I guess it wasn't really all that smart.
Throughout the entire book it seems Eliezer does everything to stay with his father and stick together. However, towards the end, when his dad begins to die, I found it curious that Eliezer begins feeling relieved. It must have been terribly hard to face this situation and know that you're helpless. All he could do was try to save himself.
