After reading this well developed and written book, my way of thinking about the future was altered to a new world of ideas about the different angles we can see the future. I read this book twice during the summer because I knew I could find new things every time. The way The Time Traveller sees the future it's very open minded and astonishing. I am a person who always saw the future as just months passing by and technology developing, but from a scientific perspective we can expect things never even thought of, for example new types of creatures like in the book Morlocks and Eloi, we can even go farther with humankind living in multiple planets. The Time Machine is for people who really have a good imagination and are open minded, I say this because a person without those qualities would stop reading in the first page. The Time Machine is a great book. …show more content…
The time machine it's about a man who created a Time Machine like the tittle says and travelled many years into the future to see new things, The Time Traveller is a curious man who wanted to see where science could take him. In the book many interesting things happen, this novel is full of; curiosity, danger, sadness, love and creatures but it's fascinating how the author H. G Wells managed to put all those things into a short novel and make everything fall into place perfectly. In the end of the story The Time Traveller returns home but leaves again and never comes back from that trip. Not returning home creates a gap between home and wherever he is, this idea in my opinion is a great way to end a story, because he makes the reader think about where The Time Traveler is, this brings back my point, that you have to be open minded and have imagination to really appreciate this great novel by H.G wells. In my opinion this was probably one of the best books I have ever read because it never gets tedious and it's short, this is fantastic because anyone could read this book in less than a week and comprehend it.
I would recommend this book to people who love realistic stories. Personally for me it is hard to find books that interest me and this one felt like if I was watching someone else's life while I read it. It has so many interesting points. When you think something might happen
Having an opinion and or a belief is better than not having one at all. A great man such as Elie Wiesel would agree to that statement. He believes standing up for what is right by showing compassion for a fellow human being than for letting good men do nothing while evil triumphs. The message he passes was how indifference is showing the other man he is nothing. He attempts to grasp the audience by personal experiences and historic failures, we need to learn from and also to grow to be the compassionate human being we all are.
So as the morning Sun rose. The light beamed on Christopher's face. The warmth of the sun welcomed him to a new day and woke up in a small house in Los Angeles. Christopher is a tall, male, that loves technology and video games. He stretched and went to the restroom it was 9 o'clock and he was thankful it was spring break and didn’t have to go to school. Christopher made his way to the kitchen trying not wake up his parents and made himself breakfast. He served himself cereal Honey Bunches of Oats to be exact with almond milk. Then he took a shower and watched some YouTube videos before doing his homework.
Attempting to Understand Eliezer Wiesel’s Night. Night is a story about a young boy's life during the Holocaust. He uses a different name in the story, Eliezer. He comes from a highly Orthodox Jewish family, and they observe the Jewish traditions.
Some traditions are passed down through generations. In a short story, “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson, a specific tradition is passed down to every generation. This generation was hated by most of the towns people ; those people said the tradition was an unfair and injustice act. Another act if injustice happened in Elie Wiesel’s short story “Hope, Despair, and Memory”. This quite from Elie Wiesel’s story shows how we must look at the unfairness. “Mankind must remember that peace is not God’s gift to his creatures, it is our gift to each other.” The short story “The Lottery” by Shirley Jackson supports Wiesel’s central idea in “Hope, Despair, and Memory” by conveying similar central ideas with their use of pathos, the character’s perspective,
However, the servant to a Dutchman was not like this at all. He was loved by all and, "He had the face of a sad angel." (Wiesel 42). However, when the power station that the child worked at blew up, he was tortured for information. But the child refused to speak and was sentenced to death by hanging.
The significance of night throughout the novel Night by Elie Wiesel shows a poignant view into the daily life of Jews throughout the concentration camps. Eliezer describes each day as if there was not any sunshine to give them hope of a new day. He used the night to symbolize the darkness and eeriness that were brought upon every Jew who continued to survive each day in the concentration camps. However, night was used as an escape from the torture Eliezer and his father had to endure from the Kapos who controlled their barracks. Nevertheless, night plays a developmental role of Elie throughout he novel.
Inked on the pages of Elie Wiesel’s Night is the recounting of him, a young Jewish boy, living through the mass genocide that was the Holocaust. The words written so eloquently are full of raw emotions depict his journey from a simple Jewish boy to a man who was forced to see the horrors of the world. Within this time period, between beatings and deaths, Wiesel finds himself questioning his all loving and powerful God. If his God loved His people, then why would He allow such a terrible thing to happen? Perhaps Wiesel felt abandoned by his God, helpless against the will of the Nazis as they took everything from him.
During the Holocaust many people were severely tortured and murdered. The holocaust caused the death of six million Jewish people, as well as the death of 5 million non-Jewish people. All of the people, who died during this time, died because of the Nazis’: a large hate group composed of extremely Ignoble, licentious, and rapacious people. They caused the prisoners to suffer physically and mentally; thus, causing them to lose all hope of ever being rescued. In the novel Night, by Elie Wiesel, Elie went through so much depression, and it caused him to struggle with surviving everyday life in a concentration camp. While Elie stayed in the concentration camp, he saw so many people get executed, abused, and even tortured. Eventually, Elie lost all hope of surviving, but he still managed to survive. This novel is a perfect example of hopelessness: it does not offer any hope. There are so many pieces of evidence that support this claim throughout the entire novel. First of all, many people lost everything that had value in their life; many people lost the faith in their own religion; and the tone of the story is very depressing.
The time machine represented the technology driven society in which concern was shown by the author. The slightest change in the initial conditions of a chaotic system can accumulate into a colossal effect. There was going to be chaos and destruction if an animal was killed. There was fear and undesirable conditions, there was fear that at the stamp of a foot or the death of any animal, important people and personality might never be born and the new world will be brought back to its foundation. There was fear of death and that time may never be changed. “This fool nearly killed us, but it isn’t that so much, no, it’s his shoes! Look at them! He ran off the path, that ruins us”. (Bradbury, 142). When Eckels stepped from the path and crushes a butterfly, As little as the death of a butterfly, things changed. There was a difference between what he saw before he left and what he saw when he got back. The room decoration changed and the air had a different smell. The presidential position of the United States was occupied by Deutscher instead of Keith. The sign on the entrance changed too, because of his tiny

Wells’The Time Machine articulates what time travel is like through his writing and how he describes using imagery. The Time Traveller gives his audience an image of what time travel is and how to achieve it (Wells 6-7). This is a new thought for most of his audience to think about. The Time Traveler has optimism as he talks to himself about the risks of time travel (Wells 17). He has optimism because is not 100 percent sure if the time machine will actually work. The writer J. D. Beresford says this about The Time Machine: “We accept the machine as a literary device to give an air of probability to the essential thing, the experience; and forget the means in the effect.” The Time Traveler’s Time Machine has worked and has landed him in the year of 802,701. The Time Traveler encounters Morlocks in the year 802,701 and develops knowledge on what frightens them. The Time Traveler says, “I was roused by a soft hand touching my face. Starting up in the darkness I snatched at my matches and, hastily striking one, I saw three stooping white creatures similar to the one I had seen above ground in the ruin, hastily retreating before the light” (Wells 45). The Time Traveler demonstrates intelligence over irrationality and emotion. Instead of being frightened by the Morlock, The Time Traveller reacts quickly and now knows the Morlocks weakness, light. Later, when The Time Traveller quickly tries to flee when the Morlocks had trapped him in the room where his time machine was.
