Book Description:
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.

A true tale of the Nazi concetration camps by one who has lived through it. A potent reminder of the horror of Nazi Germany. It made me cry, but then stories like these make most people cry. So read it not so much for enjoyment, but so that we never forget.

This is one of my all-time favorite and most influential books, which I read for the first time in 1969. As the daughter of a holocaust survivor, I was deeply effected by it. One can only marvel at the incredible and beautiful human being that Elie Wiesel has become. Everyone should read this...

I had to read this for a college class and I really liked it after it was over. It was able to grab you like you were there watching it all unfold.

Must read! I read this book in one sitting and it gripped my attention from the first page to the last. The author writes with raw honesty. A beautifully sad story.

This is a good book about the holocaust from a survivor. Chilling and depressing. Unbelievable what they were put through and had to do and see.

even though the book is short (just over 100 pages) it took me quite awhile to read. Such a horrifying account of the suffering, loss and survival of holocaust victims. It made a huge impression on me, one that will take a long while to completely process!

My book club recently did this book. I would not have chosen it otherwise, but it was a terrific read. Very short. Don't miss this one, everyone should have access to this book. A journal of the holocast from the eyes of a teen written much later as an adult.

While a good book, the writing was not as good as The Diary of Anne Frank or Rena's Promise: A Story of Sisters in Auschwitz.
Thin book...only 109 pages.

Tara B. (This is a GREAT book-very graphic and jammed packed with details..
Paige N. (I didn't thik the book lived up to the hype. I wasn't all that impressed by it.
This is a wonderfully sad and eye-opening book about the holocaust from a first person point of view. More stark and detailed about the concentration camps and life there, this should be a must read for every high school student.
GREAT BOOK. I MET ELIE WIESEL IN HIGH SCHOOL -- SHE CAME TO MY HS AND TALKED IT WAS SAD TO HEAR IT!!
Short, true account by a man who was able to survive the death camp. May we never forget the atrocities suffered by those who experienced it. I read it in one day---109 pages. I recommend it to all.
