Night by Elie Wiesel

5.0

An incredibly well-written memoir. Despite his horrific experiences in Nazi concentration camps, Wiesel does not dwell in self pity or sentimentality. He describes what he lived through in stark simplicity, holding nothing back - even his occasional selfish thoughts about his father.
Wiesel shows what happened and lets the reader judge him, his fellow Jews, and his wartime enemies for oneself. This is exactly what I'm looking for to use in my year 11 (US 10th grade) English class.
