Rating:  Summary: Excellent book! Review: I was required to read this for a humanities class. The book was both gripping and thought provoking. After reading the book I came to have a better understanding of the holocaust and the conditions at the concentration camps.
Rating:  Summary: A "Must-Read" Review: This books should be read by everyone. It describes the horrible experiences of jews in concentration camps. Every student should know about. Elie Wiesel is one of the lucky Holocause survivors, who has the courage to write about what happened to him. Breathtaking!
Rating:  Summary: The book Night was a truthful, compelling,novel of WWII. Review: I could not put the book down. My English teacher gave us a month or more to read this book and I was finished with it in two days due to my interest in the Holocaust. What happened to Elie at these Concentration camps was spoken is such an honest and horrific way it was hard for one to keep their eyes dry. The misery that all Jews were put through, the torture, can only make one regret that Hitler and his followers were ever brought into this world. God bless the Jews, for having to go through this and God bless those who survived the terror that they had to live through each and every day.
Rating:  Summary: One of the most moving books I have ever read Review: Don't read this book in public as you will find yourself in tears. It is powerful and moving and heartbreaking. It is also the only book I have read that prompted me to write a letter to the author about how it affected me. I will not forget these things
Rating:  Summary: Excellent factual account Review: This book is an excellent read for anyone with any interest in the concentration camps of WWI
Rating:  Summary: Different from "The Diary of Anne Frank" Review: This book was vastly different from "The Diary of Anne Frank", as it described the horrors of the concentration camps, as well as how the times were during World War II. I give this book a ten because Wiesel's candidness to describe what the times were like
Rating:  Summary: Excellent Review: Excellen
Rating:  Summary: Horrific! Frightening tale of the truth of the holocaust! Review: When I began reading this book, I was unable to put it down.It's intent and horrific descriptions are somewhat appauling,but it is a necessity to read and find out about the situation during the holocaust Elie wrote this autobiography long after the holocaust, but his memories have lived for ever. Read the book, you won't regret it.
Rating:  Summary: A gripping tale of holocaust horror. Review:
I found Night to be one of the easiest books I have read. The language is simple, the action straightforward and the book itself short enough to read in one long sitting.
The story itself is something else. In hindsight one can read it and feel like asking the charecters, "How did you not see that coming? Why didn't you realize what was happening?" Young Elie Wiesel and his family could have escaped Hungary, but who could believe the atrocities of which rumors were whispered? From the point of view of one who lived through death, survived horrors that many did not, Night will make real to you all the pain and suffering of concentration camp prisoners. No, it is not an easy story to read, but is perhaps necessary to fully comprehend why the holocaust was a "night" without a dawn in sight.
Rating:  Summary: I was amazed at the author's life experiences recalled here. Review: The book Night was a fantastic but horrifying look into the world of the Jewish concentration camps during the years of World War II. It is a shame that their are still people alive who doubt the validity of the recounting of the survivors of these concentration camps during World War II!!
