A review by bubothereader
Night by Elie Wiesel

dark informative reflective sad tense fast-paced

This book is a haunting representation of one of the worst periods of human history—the Holocaust. Its few pages tell the horrifying story of a boy and his family living out their experience in the concentration camps. I accidentally decided to read this on the anniversary of Elie Wiesel’s release from Buchenwald, an ultimately moving decision. I can’t give this book a rating, as this memoir deserves more than a measly five-star rating. What is of most import in Wiesel’s story is the story itself. One that must be told over and over, so we may never forget.
