The book Night, by Elie Wiesel, symbolizes comfort and license. When Clemantine first encounters Wiesel's story, she is shocked. She cannot believe Wiesel has the language to describe experiences and feelings that so closely resemble her own. She rereads the book numerous times, with each read finding new validation and allowance for her own story.
