Night - Elie Wiesel

This book by Elie Wiesel, Night, is a somewhat short, but very powerful novel.

SPOILERS are possible!!  You Have Been WARNED

In Night, Wiesel recounts some of the attrocites of the halocaust, which he had experianced first hand. At an early age he wanted his father to move from his home town of Sighet in Transylvania, but his father was resistant to move. The Jews of Sighet heared news of the war, but it never bothered them. They were out of German reach--or so they thought...

There are many terrible things depicted in this book, for the most part it is not too bad. There are some parts however, in which you might have to stop reading for a moment. That is, if you have the picturing mind that I do when I read. Overall this is a very sad story, and the fact that it is true makes it worse. Reading this will open the eyes of many, for they will see how bad the world can be.

I recommend reading this book. I read it for a class, but I would definatly read it on my own.
