Elie Wiesel's Night stands as his magnum opus, an unflinchingly honest, horrifying, and deeply moving autobiographical testament to his survival as a young teenager in the Nazi concentration camps. Translated anew by Marion Wiesel, Elie's wife and frequent collaborator, this latest rendition faithfully captures the memoir's essence in language that honors the author's original intent. Accompanied by a substantial new preface penned by Elie himself, the book reflects on the enduring significance of Night and his unwavering commitment to ensuring humanity never forgets the depths of cruelty one person can inflict upon another.
Night transcends mere chronicling of the daily horrors, routine debasements, and widespread sadism within Auschwitz and Buchenwald. It also eloquently grapples with the profound philosophical and personal queries inherent in any serious examination of the Holocaust—what it was, what it signified, and what its enduring repercussions are and will continue to be.
Elie Wiesel's Night, a candid, horrific, and profoundly poignant autobiographical account of his survival as a teenager in the Nazi death camps, is considered his masterpiece. This new translation by Marion Wiesel, Elie's wife and frequent translator, presents this seminal memoir in the language and spirit truest to the author's original intent. Accompanied by a substantive new preface by Elie himself, this edition reflects on the lasting significance of Night and his lifelong, passionate dedication to ensuring that the world never forgets humanity's capacity for inhumanity.
