summary 66-84..!!

The Jewish year was finishing and Ellie asked himself why all men who were there praised for an invisible God, the one who let them die and suffer in that way.
He decided not to pray more, not to believe in God. Instead of talking to God, he just asked for forgiveness, he no longer believed.He started to rebel against God, he would show Him he was capable of surviving even in that horrible place, where all had a painful face.He went with his father ant they remained silent, they understood so good that they hadn’t to say a single word.The new year was “good”, the roll call didn’t last so much time. The soup and bread were good, they even received a little bit more bread and soup. They were explained that Buna, time before was like hell, there were no clothing, no blankets, less soup and bread. They were thankful to this, but they still felt like nothing.Their Blockälteste told them human words before the next selection, he was not bad at all, he didn’t want to stay there, he didn’t want to see more people dying, it was really depressing. So he told Jews not to fall, to run faster than ever, and feel sure about them. The most important here was not to be written down as the next victim. His father give him a spoon and a knife to keep, because he was sure he was not going to survive, but Ellie told him that if he passed he would return to him those things. Ellie and his friends passed the proof; they gave everything they could to run fast. The selection was perfect because apparently his father’s number was not written down.Some days after the Blockälteste said 10 numbers to stay in the camp before going to work, they knew they were the chosen by the officers in the selection and they were totally afraid, the did not want to die. But Ellie’s father was in the list, so his father gave him a spoon and a knife to keep, because he was sure he was not going to survive, but Ellie told him that if he passed he would return to him those things. But a miracle happened: his father was alive.Then the person who said Kaddish for all Jews left, he was taken for the selection, certainly he was going to die, they all promised to say Kaddish after his death, but no one remembered to do so at the moment.The winter came and Eliezer’s foot started to swell because of the cold, he went to the doctor and the foot had to be operated. The next day the operation would take place. The operation went good, in two weeks the foot would be fully recovered but he had to be smart, because in the infirmary had selection too, and more frequently.Two days later there were rumors about the Red Army was racing Buna. The evacuation would take place the day after in the night; Eliezer was upset because after the evacuation the camp would blow up.Eliezer’s father had some faith on Eliezer, about his foot. Hopefully, the foot would resist. He didn’t want to stay in the infirmary, because they would probably be killed.After the war he noticed they were saved by Russians.The last night in Buna was sleepless, his foot was like on fire, it hurted a lot. At the next day he could only put a blanket around his feet, in order to not suffer a lot in the journey.The next day, the Blockälteste forced them to clean the camp. What for? For letting now the army that MEN occupied that place, at the end they were men?After that they were order to stay in ranks, after few moments the doors were opened, they started to march to a unknown destiny over the snow.
