Answer:
Sure!
Step-by-step explanation:
Twelve-year-old Eliezer was one of four children in his household and lived a somewhat ordinary life as a young boy in Sighet, Transylvania (modern day Romania). Both of his parents were respected and hardworking shop owners, as well as devout Jews. With a strict Orthodox Jew upbringing, it was expected from Elie's father that he follow the Jewish religion closely and study Jewish law. Behind the scenes, however, curious Elie explored the Kabbala, a mystical interpretation of the Bible, which is not the way of the Orthodox beliefs.
Elie opens the first chapter with a devastating recount of what happened to his friend and confidant, Moshe. Hungarians shipped out foreign Jews from Sighet, including Moshe, to the border of Poland. Once at the border, the Jews were handed over to the Germans to be killed and buried in mass graves. Moshe managed to escape a brutal massacre and made his way back to Sighet to warn others of his brush with death and pure evil. He experienced firsthand the Nazi brutality against Jews and lived to tell about it. Nevertheless, to his surprise, no one in the community took his warnings seriously. Therefore, the people of Sighet cast Moshe aside and dismissed his claims as absurdity.
