Alle Exemplare der Ausgabe mit dieser ISBN anzeigen:Twilight is the haunting novel by Nobel Peace prize-winning author Elie Wiesel, available as a Penguin Essential for the first time.
Raphael Lipkin hears voices and talks to ghosts. Spending the summer at the Mountain Clinic, a New York psychiatric hospital, he is not a patient but rather a visiting professional with a secret, highly personal quest.
A Holocaust survivor who has painstakingly rebuilt his life, he has watched, horrified and helpless, as it all started coming apart. He longs for Pedro, the man who rescued him in postwar Poland - who became his mentor, hero, saviour and friend - and taught him truth from falsehood. But Pedro vanished into Stalin's gulags . . .
Desperate to explain his own survival, Raphael now seeks among the delusional patients the answers to the mysteries of good, evil and madness.
Elie Wiesel was born in 1928 in Sighet, Transylvania, which is now part of Romania. He was fifteen years old when he and his family were deported by the Nazis to Auschwitz. After the war, Elie Wiesel studied in Paris and later became a journalist. During an interview with the distinguished French writer, Francois Mauriac, he was persuaded to write about his experiences in the death camps. The result was his internationally acclaimed memoir, La Nuit or Night, which has since been translated into more than thirty languages.
. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.'As a boy, Raphael feared madness but was drawn to madmen.'
A professor of literature and a Holocaust survivor, Raphael longs to find Pedro, the man who rescued him as an orphan in postwar Poland. But Pedro vanished inside the prisons of Stalin's Russia. When a mysterious caller directs him to the Mountain Clinic, an asylum for those whose delusions spring from the Bible, he finds patients calling themselves Adam, Cain, Abraham, Joseph, Jeremiah, and God. Searching for Pedro among them, Raphael seeks the meaning of his own survival . . .
'Wiesel has the literary talent and the moral ferocity to make our daily concerns seem trivial' New York Times
