Wow, where to begin? First of all, I would like to thank Elie for sharing his story with the world. I have no words to explain how crazy and unimaginable this book is. How on earth can someone pick up a small, innocent little baby and throw him/her into a a pit of fire! How?! I felt so much emotions while reading this book. At times I would feel sad, then I would cry, then I would smile and then I would cry a bit more. Elie described everything, absolutely everything, not leaving any detail behind. It made me feel so disgusted how some men and women can acctualy do such a thing and not feel any guilt afterwards...This book is simply amazing, a MUST read.

It is truly a shock that one has lived to tell such a story and a great achievement. I express my greatest thanks in being able to read it. Thank you.

This book is the real story of a boy who survived the Nazi holocaust of Jews in world war II. Described are the many struggles for survival physically and mentally. Terrible oppression, starvation, murder, injustice, death, fear, savage violence, etc... The only negative thing about the book is that it is very short, with only about 114 pages of actual description of events. Very well written.

This book was amazing. It is such a touching story that pulls you in from the moment you start. You go on the emotional journey with the author has he retells his story of living through the Holocaust. It starts with his life in Transylvania, living with his parents and sisters. He was a very devout Jew who felt really connected to God and his faith. Although the war is happening, this community had not yet felt the effects of Nazi Germany. The reader is witness to a "sped up" version of what happened in Germany in Elie's hometown near the end of the war. In a matter of months, they experience what happened in a matter of years. We travel with his family on the train to the concentration camps and see him get separated from the women in his family. The remainder of the story is about him and his father and their struggle to survive. We se Elie question his faith and all of humankind. This story does not really have an ending, but it suits the style of the story and experience. Elie Wiesel pulls the readers into his world and gives them the chance to understand what happened to so many people during the Holocaust.

Firstly, let me make it clear that I did not read this book because this was recommend by Oprah. I was required to read “Night” for my college English course and when the professor informed our class that this is about holocaust; my initial, but disgusting, reaction was “Oh, there we go again. Another book on holocaust….” I would like to have this opportunity to proclaim that I was abhorrently mistaken. Elie Wiesel’s “Night” would have to be one of the greatest books I have ever read. This is no ordinary story about holocaust, nor does the writer employs any decorative language. Yet, this simple writing is written such elegance and levity that it’s unutterable. This is true story of a human being, written with such humanity. This is a story of a great evil that ever infected our world. This is a story of a boy who went mad in order to comprehend “the nature of madness.” This is a story of a boy who watched helplessly as “language became an obstacle.” This is a story of a boy who amid grave dangers didn’t lose his faith in God – yet struggled with it. This is story of a boy who was frail and weak yet felt strong because he was the accuser, God the accused. This is a story of That Night. As he writes in brevity yet bravely: “Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, that turned much life into one long night seven times sealed. Never shall I forget that smoke. Never shall I forget the small faces of the children whose bodies I was transformed into smoke under the silent sky. Never shall I forget those flames that consumed my faith forever. Never shall I forget the nocturnal silence that deprived me for all eternity of the desire to live. Never shall I forget those moments that murdered my God and my soul and turned my dreams into ashes. Never shall I forget those things, even were I condemned to live as long as God Himself. Never.” And this humble reviewer and reader can only promise that never shall I forget his story and the untold story of countless others who were deprived by the depraved. Highly recommended to anyone who can read. You don't have to be Jewish in order to comprehend this man's feelings. I am neither Jewish nor religious.

Words cannot describe how well this book was written. Every single person needs to be educated and aware of what happened during this time in history, and Elie Wiesel definitely paints a detailed picture for his readers. This book should be read by everyone

Another incredible book by someone who suffered the pain and memories of evil. I never get tired of reading about the concentration camps and it is a reminder that we must never let it happen again. Thank you for writing this and keeping it alive.

Elie Wiesel's ``Night`` is a life altering read. His horrifying account of life in a Nazi concentration camp makes you feel like you are living the horror. Mr Wiesel's attention to detail is probably the best I have read in any book. It is almost unthinkable that people can treat their fellow human beings the way Mr. Wiesel and his family were treated. ``Night`` is a powerful book that any avid reader shouldn`t miss. This is a book that you will read again and again. Once you are finished reading Night, you might want to dive into Elie Wiesel`s other books such as Dawn, The Trial of God, Day, and The Forgotten.

A first I was not sure I would want to read this book as I usually can't watch TV shows on this subject. Not only could I read it, I read it in one sitting. The book is only about 100 pages but it feels like it is 300 pages. It is the best account on this topic I have ever read. You have to read this.

Shocking and compelling. However, I don't think I can read this again. It's a book you will never forget.
