BOOK OF THE DAY: 

Night by Elie Wiesel

“What makes this book so chilling is not the pretense of what happened but a very real description of every thought, fear and the apathetic attitude demonstrated as a response … Night, Wiesel’s autobiographical masterpiece, is a heartbreaking memoir. Wiesel has taken his painful memories and channeled them into an amazing document which chronicles his most intense emotions every step along the way.”—Jose Del Real, Anchorage Daily News

Elie Wiesel’s Night is one of the few books we claim to have changed our lives. Recounting his experience in Auschiwitz and Buchenwald, two German concentration camps, with his father, Elie Wiesel is candid, unforgiving, and extraordinarily powerful. As giving and intimate as The Diary of Anne Frank, Wiesel pierces your thoughts with the horror and shame humanity once projected. Leaving you speechless and stoic, this a book that should be globally read.

If we are completely sincere Night is not a book that should be critiqued, it is an education on history and on the heart. Wiesel’s simple prose works with the gravity of his story. It is the most eye opening book we ever had the honor of reading. Sometimes gruesome, blunt and brief, Wiesel reminds us that, such events in human history dehumanize the soul. By giving a personal account as a survivor of the Holocaust, this is a human being’s  method of humanizing and actualizing his survival. Note, Night is emotionally draining, but necessary in the education of every person’s life.
