CliffsNotes on Wiesel's Night
Night -- A terrifying account of the Nazi death camp horror that turns a young Jewish boy into an agonized witness to the death of his family...the death of his innocence...and the death of his God. Penetrating and powerful, as personal as "The Diary Of Anne Frank," "Night" awakens the shocking memory of evil at its absolute and carries with it the unforgettable message that this horror must never be allowed to happen again. "To the best of my knowledge no one has left behind him so moving a record." -- Alfred Kazin "Wiesel has taken his own anguish and imaginatively metamorphosed it into art." -- Curt Leviant, "Saturday Review"
