Night by Elie Wiesel

This weekend I read the book Night by Elie Wiesel.  I have not read much about the holocaust so this book was something new for me.  I greatly enjoyed the book.  The holocaust was a disgusting occurrence that plagues the history of the world but Wiesel’s words created a beautiful and real painting of what it may have been like to exerpience it.  I really enjoyed his style of writing and the details and feelings in which he included in this book.  His inner struggle with God, caring for his father in a world where caring for anyone besides yourself could easily result in death and also his motivations for what kept him pushing on were particularly interesting to me.  This is a short and quick read but very good.  I read it rather quickly so I look forward to reading it again soon.
