5.0

To give this book a five-star ranking feels wrong. How do you award an experience so painful? How do you respond to the story of the survivor? With pity for their misfortune? With joy and awe of their stupendous luck? Or do you simply go numb, heart breaking under the thunderous crush of human capacity for hate and evil? How can I give such a terrible story five stars?

Five stars to author Elie Wiesel for reliving his pain to share his experience for the world to learn from. Five stars to Marion Wiesel for her haunting translation of his story from French to English. May they both rest in peace.

This will live with me for a long time.
