Synopsis
An autobiographical narrative, in which the author describes his experiences in Nazi concentration camps., First published in 1958, this raw, devastatingly haunting Holocaust memoir is Nobel Peace Prize winner Elie Wiesel's best known work. After the German army invades, they first confine the Jewish community of Sighet, Transylvania, into a ghetto, and then pack them into cattle cars bound for the concentration camps. Fifteen-year-old Eliezer and his father, alone after the Nazis take away his mother and sisters, experience unbearable horrors at Birkenau, Auschwitz, and Buchenwald that undermine Elie's faith in God and come close to destroying his humanity.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "They called him Moshe the Beadle, as though he had never had a surname in his life."
Industry Reviews
"To the best of my knowledge no one has left behind him so moving a record."
Book Jacket - Alfred Kazin
"What I maintain is that this personal record, coming after so many others and describing an outrage about which we might imagine we already know all that it is possible to know, is nevertheless different, distinct, unique....Have we ever thought about the consequence of a horror that, though less apparent, less striking than the other outrages, is yet the worst of all to those of us who have faith: the death of God in the soul of a child who suddenly discovers absolute evil?"
Foreword - Francios Mauriac
"Wiesel has taken his own anguish and imaginatively metamorphosed it into art."
Saturday Review - Curt Leviant
"As a human document, 'Night' is almost unbearably painful, and certainly beyond criticism."
Commentary - A. Alvarez
"The book that always makes me weep is 'Night' by Elie Wiesel, because it brings up emotions of sorrow, horror and anger. And the book that unfailingly cheers me up is also 'Night' by Elie Wiesel, because it shows me that there is never an excuse for not trying to overcome evil, and that there is no situation from which we cannot emerge with a determination to be productive."
Washington Post Book World - Alan M. Dershowitz (12/10/1995)
"The seminal story of a child the Germans intended to murder, more to the point than the partial narrative of 'The Diary of Anne Frank' since it describes the place of Anne Frank's doom."
New York Times Book Review - Cynthia Ozick (04/13/1997)
"A slim volume of terrifying power."
Kazin
