Halfway through chapter one, Elie recalls his father's response to wearing the yellow star: "The yellow star? So what? It's not lethal . . . " He then includes this aside: "(Poor Father! Of what then did you die?)" In chapter eight, Elie knows that his father is suffering from dysentery. What did Elie not know in relation to his father's death? Mark ALL that apply. - Elie was sleeping in the top bunk when his father in the lower bunk was replaced by another sick person.
- Elie had not seen his father for several days prior to his father's death.
- Elie does not know if his father was still alive when his father was taken to the crematorium.
- The doctor struck a near deadly blow to Elie's father's head, so dysentery may not have been what killed him.
