Night Elie Wiesel "I think I read Night in junior high or early in high school. It was definitely many years ago, but it's great to see that it's sort of in the common speak of things. Generally the book is about the survival of the self and the soul in the context of a concentration camp. It's a very dark book, but it's also somehow an extremely light book. I suppose not in a comic sense, but in terms of an emotional, spiritual sense, it reminds me of Life is Beautiful, the movie. As I think about enjoying - or at least getting some really deep gratification out of reading Night, I remembered feeling really intimately connected with the first-person voice. It felt timeless, it felt true, it felt non-manipulative. It felt like a really - somehow a really great combination of a personal testament and a novel that would reach all sorts of people. This is one of the rare books out there I think that one wishes everybody would read, the sort of book that, if you made a list of these 10 or 20 most important books worldwide, if everybody read them, things would be going very differently in the world today than they are, I would think. I think it's very easy to give Night five stars out of five, because it's very difficult to find fault with the book. It's vivid, it's genuine, it's about a very, very important era in history. Surprisingly not very long ago still."
