Summary: Great read!
Review: I had to read this book for school. I have never been much of a reader, especially for those books assigned in high school english classes. This book was very different though, I could not put it down, I definitely reccommend this book to any one, even if you dont enjoy reading.

Summary: A short note
Review: When I was in high school 20 years ago, various books were required reading during those 4 years. I started reading all of them but usually became bored after 10-20 pages and never finished them, regardless of the impact this would have on my grade. In those 4 years, Night was only only book I read to the very end and did it in a couple of days. This is a powerful story of one of the darkest periods in mankind's history. Powerful to a high school kid that did not like being told what to read.

Summary: Haunting
Review: This book may be short, but a lifetime is packed into these 109 pages. Elie Wiesel presented to me things I didn't know about or hadn't thought about the Holocaust - things like the man who escaped and ran back to his town and pleaded in tears with the people, telling them of things he saw, yet no one would believe him. Things like a son in the camp hitting his father and taking away his bread. Things like the dilemma of whether you should fast for 24 hours on Yom Kippur when you've been fasting for months in a concentration camp. This book is heartbreaking, and there is no peace at the end, either. You are taken with the writer through the sinking depths of finding that if only you (the writer) would have done a certain thing - listened to the man who proclaimed what he saw, gone on a different train, in a different line, stayed behind with a certain group - perhaps you would be free by now and your loved ones would be alive. Many lose all faith in God, and some manage to still believe in Him. This book is devestating. You're stripped and left hanging and empty. And perhaps that's the right effect the book should have. There is no resolution other than to learn of and remember the horror and determine that nothing similar will happen again.

Summary: A Must Read
Review: ... It is a matter-of-fact, no hype, blow by blow of life in a concentration camp. If you don't crumble under the force of it, you don't have a heart. It is as moving an account of life under Hitler as one might find, with no frills. You don't read thoughts, but facts and circumstances - one after the other - until you are left with the weight of the experience through the eyes of an amazing survivor. The impact of inhumane treatment on emotion and on perspective is enlightening. You feel almost as if you are reading Hemmingway, with a style in which the story, not the story-teller, leaves you to reach your own thoughtful conclusions. It is a very short book, and can be finished in one long sitting. In fact, you almost have to encounter it that way because putting it down just feels wrong. It is one of the most moving books I have ever read, and may be THE most moving book I have ever read.

Summary: Wiesel is a liar
Review: I had to read this book in highschool. It was not until later that found out Wiesel was exposed as a fraud back in the early 80s. That's right, there is now serious doubt that he was ever interned at any camp. Here he claims to have be interned at Auschwitz. Yet in 1983 he wrote that he'd been liberated from Dachau, and in 1986 he wrote he'd been liberated from Buchenwald. In the 90s he claimed he was the victim of a conspiracy to discredit him and that there were hundreds of protesters at his Nobel Prize exeptence. What a liar. video of his Nobel Speech shows no such thing. Wiesel is a fraud who exploits the suffering of others for money. Read Norman Finkelstien's 'The Holocaust Industry' you'll understand liars like Wiesel.

Summary: The most terrifying book I've ever read..
Review: In only a hundred pages or so this book manages to bring to life what surely must be the darkest most horrible period in history. With simple prose the author is able to paint a horrible picture of the time he spent in a concentration camp. The images his story evoked in my minds eye of the terrible cruelty humans can inflict on one another will stay with me forever.

Summary: plainly and powerfully told
Review: Elie Wiesel's "Night" is the story of his experience of the Holocaust, in Auschwitz and Buchenwald. He writes of this bleak, horrible time in plain and powerful prose. "Night" is far more than an account of days and nights that nearly defy description. It also reveals how young fifteen year old Elie, who had been an exceedingly devout and prayerful boy, lost his faith. The lament "Where is God?" echoes throughout the book, a question to which no one can provide an answer that satisfies without seeming too glib and insensitive. Elie Weisel did survive, and has spent much of his life seeking justice and reparations for the tremendous suffering and losses of the camps. His memoir "Night" is a vital contribution to Holocaust history.

Summary: Wonderful
Review: "Night" by Elie Wiesel is by far one of the best Holocaust books ever written. It is very short, but what it lacks in number of pages, it makes up for in content and message. The book gives a look at details from the ghetto and concentration camps that are often overlooked or widely unknown. It not only goes through a young man's struggle through concentration camps, but also his struggles with losing his family and everyone close to him, as well as his struggle with faith in God, hunger, and other issues. I found this book to be amazingly enlightening and overall wonderfully written
