Check out a sneak peek
Wiesel’s personal account of the experiences he endures as a young boy in the Nazi concentration camps of Buchenwald, Auschwitz, and Birkenau, reveal the brutality of the Nazi regime in its treatment of its predominantly Jewish prisoners. Recalling in memoir form, the transformative impact of inhumanity on a devout young believer, perhaps the most confronting moments in Night are those that depict how the prisoners respond to the brutality that they are subjected to; treated as subhuman, they come to behave in ways that reflects their treatment. For Elie, the challenge is to reject this behavior even when survival seems to depend on it.
