Night

Rating:
Summary: It is a very powerful book.
Review: Night is a book about one young man's experience of Auschwtz. Elie Wiesel tells us his own experience during that horrific time period. The book shows readers the cruelties of Nazis army and the sufferings of Jewish people. Before Holocaust, Elie and his family lives were secure and comfortable. They lived in a Jewish community happily. Elieís father was the leader of their community. They were very religious. Praying and searching for God were Elieís main interests. However, this peaceful life didnít last too long. Nazi executed many strict policies for Jews. They were forcibly moved to ghetto where they could not go out after 8pm. The ghettoes were becoming more crowded and smaller. Many Jews were told that Nazis were burning and torturing Jews in their concentration camp among other unbelievable Nazis cruelties. However, people were skeptic and nobody believed this rumor. When Elie was fifteen years old, the entire community where Elie was living was sent to concentration camp by cattle trains. Once they arrived at the concentration camp, they were selected according to their physical conditions and abilities to work. Healthy men were kept alive to work in the camp, while women, children and the weaks would be gassed and tossed into fire. They were facing death everyday. After Elie witnessed all these killings and torturing, he finally lost his faith. Night is a very powerful book. It brought to a journey of hell and an endless night. I recommend it ot evryone who wants to know the truth and horror of the Holocaust.

Summary: Exciting, memorable, story
Review: This book by Elie Wiesel, was amazing. He make the reader feel, taste , hear and see what all the victims of the holocaust experienced. He made the reader out themselves in the place of these prisoners. I think that it was a great idea for an author to out down on paper what he went through as a child and as he grew up. It makes up think aboout the furture and whats ahead. He makes you realize that this can not ever happen again. By reading about his experience, we learn how to prevent these things from occuring in the near future. THIS TYPE OF EVENT SHALL NOT OCCUR IF WE LEARN HOW TO PREVENT IT!!!!

Summary: It changed my view of the holocaust forever....
Review: This was part of my required reading for Grade11 Religion. After reading the first few pages I could not put it down, I read the book in 3 nights. It changed my perspective of the horrors of war because the book was written so honestly and with such a realistic view that I my heart felt cold to know that people could do this to one another, I knew about the holocaust before reading the book but I could not grasp the situation in a realistic manner, this book helped me do that.

Summary: This book is a must read for teens on up.

Summary: suspencful
Review: I thought the book was very good. It showd me a lot of what I did not already know. And that the author is a very good writer, and it is amazing just how much he can remember after all this time. I think it is good though that he is telling the world about how tough it was so maybe history will not repeat itself. He had a lot of guts to survive such a horrorible exprience. It is not every day you run across such a strong person or read such a strong book. I think everyone should read this book somtime in their life so that the Holocaust will not repeat itself, and no more people will have to suffer such a horrorible exprience, but I think this is one of the best books I have ever read in my life.

I think that is really what made the book so interesting. Just knowing that the author really experienced every detail in the book makes it so much more exciting and realistic. I really enjoyed this book and I believe that everyone should take the time to read this breath taking novel.

Summary: Very good, captivating and riveting with excitement!
Review: I think that this book was very good. It seemed like it was a very accurate description of what life was like in the concentration camps. NIGHT showed the true and absolute horror that everyday life brought the prisoners. It told how some of the prisoners still showed courage and compassion towards others while most of the other prisoners were greedy, selfish pigs. I think that it should be a required reading book for High School classes and that everyone should read it at least once in their life to know the horror that the Holocaust brought. This book is very quick reading and has a nice, flowing plot and story line.

Rating:
Summary: Graphic, yet necessary reading
Review: I feel that this book, though it can be quite grusome and depressing at times is a necessary window into the horrors and attrocities of the Holocaust. What I think made this book more intresting than most other books on the Holocaust was "Night" wasn't just throwing facts about how many people died, but it was filled with emotion and feeling. It wasn't untill I read this book that the full impact of the Holocaust finaly hit me. The vivid descriptions of the internal conflict going on withen Elie moved me in a way no other book has. I think that everyone should read this book, as it is the first thing I have read that has shown me how horrible things truly were in the concentration camps. The world must hear of Elie's story, for if we forget, we could let it happen again.

Summary: It was a fabulous revivement of the holocaust.
Review: I really enjoyed reading Night. It helped me to understand what really happened during the Holocaust, and what it was like to see it from an inside view. The vivid descriptions of everything left a perfectly clear picture in my mind. When Elie described what he felt at the babies being used as targets, I could hardly let myself believe that it really happened. I will always remember Elie's experiences and the impact that it had upon me.
