Night

Synopsis

Born into a jewish ghetto in hungary, as a child, elie wiesel was sent to the nazi concentration camps at auschwitz and buchenwald. This is his account of that atrocity: the ever-increasing horrors he endured, the loss of his family and his struggle to survive in a world that stripped him of humanity, dignity and faith. Describing in simple terms the tragic murder of a people from a survivor’s perspective, night is among the most personal, intimate and poignant of all accounts of the holocaust.
