Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Katie

This is yet another book that I find totally heartbreaking because it is true. This is an exaple of the real events and thoughts of someone who went through the Holocaust. This book is indescribable because it is unbelievably heartbreaking. In the end we get an image of what was left of him after years of torture and waiting. He has been cut away from his family, watched people die right in front of his eyes, smelled the odor of burning flesh and lived the torture of genocide. The scariest part of this whole things is that it is absolutely 100% true and there are people who survived and have to live with that the rest of their lives. I commend Elie Wiesel and give him the utmost respect for reliving these event through this book and don't know how someone couldn't be moved by this book. There is no genius behind this book because it is simply truth. The truth needs to genius to be moving.
