Here is my hook on Literary Analysis on the book "Night", By Elie Wiesel:
Hook:
As one flips through the pages of history, they will come across one of the darkest chapters to ever exist, the horrific World War II era. In the midst of this major war, a young teen faced the Holocaust, a critical event of suffering, injustice, and darkness that claimed millions of lives and changed the teen’s life forever.

Bridge Sentence, and Thesis:
That teen was Elie Wiesel, who created the eye-opening memoir, Night. This powerful narrative uses various literary devices that connects to the theme of inhumanity, shedding light on the atrocities of that time.

Answer 1

In the book “Night” by Elise Wiesel we can see lots of negative shifts. A young teen has to face the holocaust which was a harsh, difficult journey which permanently scared the teen. (Short and sweet, not too much details.)
