Synopsis:
 
Born in the town of Sighet, Transylvania, Elie Wiesel was a teenager when he and his family were taken from their home in 1944 to the Auschwitz concentration camp, and then to Buchenwald. Night is the terrifying record of Elie Wiesel's memories of the death of his family, the death of his own innocence, and his despair as a deeply observant Jew confronting the absolut evil of man. This new translation by his wife and most frequent translator, Marion Weisel, corrects important details and presents the most accurate rendering in English of Elie Weisel's testimony to what happened in the camps and of his unforgettable message that this horror must never be allowed to happen again.
