Night, by Elie Wiesel Options

[freeridefight]

Night by Elie Wiesel is a powerful book about a jewish child and his family caught up in a concentration camp. It is an autobiography. We are reading it for class, and I thought it would be a great book to talk about. Here is a few links:

Elie Wiesel's Bio

I believe he choose not to talk about the expierence for twelve years, and if you've read the book, you can understand why. I couldn't believe it was all true.

//edit.

sorry, it was ten years.
Anyway, comments?

Hella cried when I read this book. It's really short, so you can read it one reading. I remember the first time I had read it - I was just in bed, thinking I'd read for half an hour or so then go to sleep, and I ended up reading the whole thing, bawling, then waking up in the morning all puffy-eyed. Luckily, I wasn't alone. Turns out it made a few other people at least tear up, too.

In fact, I can't believe I don't think of this book whenever anyone asks me if I've ever cried because of a book.
