10 out of 10

This is a great and powerful book!

Night -- A terrifying account of the Nazi death camp horror that turns a young Jewish boy into an agonized witness to the death of his family...the death of his innocence...and the death of his God. Penetrating and powerful, as personal as The Diary Of Anne Frank, Night awakens the shocking memory of evil at its absolute and carries with it the unforgettable message that this horror must never be allowed to happen again.

What an incredible book. I think everyone should be required to read this book at some point during their school years so as to get a little understanding of the holocaust.

Thanks so much for sharing this with me.

What a book. Small but so powerful.
The last 2 weeks of his book were shocking. I've read more books about people in concentration camps but this is the first account where I can see and understand the feelings.

I would stop believing in God too. Elie tells the story with such an impact, it is shocking.
thanks for sharing!

Update June 21. Going to a meeting at the beach next weekend and offered people to check my availables
This one is going to marsala
