Night

Night Night is a great book by Elie Wiesel, based on his experience, as a young Jew being sent with his family to the German concentration camps at Auschwitz and Buchenwald during the Second World War.

Elie Wiesel was sixteen years old when Buchenwald was liberated in April 1945. Having lost his faith and humanity, he vowed not to speak of his experiences for ten years, at the end of which he wrote his story in Yiddish, which was published in Buenos Aires in 1955. Fifty years later, the 109 page book, described as devastating in its simplicity, ranks along side Primo Levi's If This Is a Man and Anne Frank's The Diary of a Young Girl as one of the bedrocks of Holocaust literature.

I loved this book, it gives you the creeps. But you go through every emotion when your reading this book. My best friend is reading this book in her English class, she showed it to me and I started to read it and by the end of the school day I couldn't put it do. There were parts in it where it made me want to cry but yet there were parts where it felt like I wanted to throw up. If you even get the chance to read this best seller book. You should pick it up and start reading it right away.
