The brutal scenes are clearly drawn into your head with the descriptive explanations for what is really going on in WWII. Eli Weisel knows exactly how to get the point across in a way that has deeply touched many throughout the world. This book should be read by everyone to see how cruel people can really be. By letting this information out we can help avoid situations like this in the future. Anyone who can get ahold of this book should definately read it!

Review: Elie Wiesel is a very talented writer. He relays his experiences in the concentration camps in great detail. I was captivated by the story, and was moved to tears.

Summary: Simply Amazing
Review: This novel is one of the few books that is hard to put down. Its about the hardships of a fifteen year old boy during World War II. This book is a perfect example of what our world should not ever do again. No one should have to face what the Jewish people went through in the concentration camps. To think something so horrific would happen in the twentieth century! These are some of the realities we have to face, that such hate was in this world and still i today.

Summary: POWERFUL!
Review: Elie Wiesel's memoir of his trip through Auschwitz as a young teenager is an incredibly gripping, emotional read that gets at the blackness of the Holocaust. It is a short book, (109 pages) but one must wonder if one could read much more before being forced to put it down. It is Elie's personal story, but resonates with the testimony of what hundreds, thousands of Jews were forced to go through. A must read for anyone seeking an insight into the heart of darkness and its effects on man.

Summary: A touching book
Review: "Never shall I forget those flames which consumed my faith forever...Never shall I forget those moments which murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams to dust." (Elie Wiesel, 'Night')
There have been more holocausts than one, yet 'the Holocaust' is still the name we use for one of the cruelest massacres of a people ever: the persecution of the Jews in Europe. The Holocaust has long since ended, but still the memories continue in the minds of survivors across the planet. This touching book tells the story of a man who was only a teen when he, and his family, are taken away. The tale is sad but true, and gives an excellent account of this man's life during the Holocaust. Though you know when you are reading it what the fate of millions were, it continues to be eerily intriguing. It is told in such a way that you can almost feel the pain, hear the cries...

Summary: A Breathtaking Story
Review: This book was an excellent one and one of the best I have read all year. Wiesel uses simple language and sentece structure, making this story even more moving. He just comes out and says what many go in circles trying to express. When Mrs. Monguillon, my English teacher, gave us this book, I looked at the title and thickness and thought, "Oh great, a children's book!" Boy, was I in for a surprise! I heard that Elie did actually met one of his sisters again after the war. If he did, that's great. I think I will check out some more of Elie Wiesel's books!

Summary: Why this book?
Review: It is true that anyone who didn't experience the holocaust will never be able to truly understand it. What people become when killed every way but physically, and what people become when given the power to kill without discression is of paramount importance for us to understand. Mr. Wiesel sheds light on the moving forces behind the people of the holocaust through his own experiences. This book gives a short lasting view of the horrors of the camp, but an unforgetable sense of the loss and tragedy suffered by everyone involved. I suggest you read it.

Summary: 3 students English project
Review: We read 2 books for our book project in our English class in Sandy Spring Friends School. We compared Night and Friedrich by Hans Peter Richter. We tried to show how a book that was written by a survivor differed from a book written by someone else. Overall, we liked Night better than Friedrich because of it's genuine outlook, it was more realistic.
