Paperback. Zustand: Good. A new translation from the French by Marion Wiesel. Night is Elie Wiesel's masterpiece, a candid, horrific, and deeply poignant autobiographical account of his survival as a teenager in the Nazi death camps.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The first volume of Nobel Peace Laureate Elie Wiesel's passionate, poignant, and moving two-volume autobiography, detailing his imprisonment in Auschwitz, his life in Paris, and his journey to writing the acclaimed memoir Night This edition contains sixteen pages of black-and-white photographs. "From the abyss of the death camps Wiesel has come as a messenger to mankind--not with a message of hate and revenge, but with one of brotherhood and atonement."--From the citation for the 1986 Nobel Peace Prize All Rivers Run to the Sea opens with a child's entry into hell. We see the young Elie Wiesel torn from a traditional and loving Jewish family life in a Carpathian village and dragged through the horrors of Auschwitz and Buchenwald. We see him emerge a bloodless adolescent, a mute spirit, with no homeland. At war's end, parents and youngest sister vanished, life begins anew in a French orphanage. Wiesel recalls his struggle with his God as well as his intense sorties into the study of philosophy, the Jewish Scriptures, and the lore of the mystics. He remembers the gradual rekindling of old dreams. He is comforted by the survival of his two sisters. We see him becoming once again fully alive. And in the late 1950s, inspired to write his first book, Night, he finds at last his voice as a witness for the Holocaust's martyrs and survivors, and as a spokesman for humanity.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. A memorial edition of Elie Wiesel's seminal memoir of surviving the Nazi death camps, with tributes by President Obama and Samantha PowerWhen Elie Wiesel died in July 2016, the White House issued a memorial statement in which President Barack Obama called him the conscience of the world. The whole of the president's eloquent tribute will appear as a foreword to this memorial edition of Night. Like millions of admirers, I first came to know Elie through his account of the horror he endured during the Holocaust simply because he was Jewish, wrote the president.In 1986, when Wiesel received the Nobel Peace Prize, the Norwegian Nobel Committee wrote, Elie Wiesel was rescued from the ashes of Auschwitz after storm and fire had ravaged his life. In time he realized that his life could have purpose: that he was to be a witness, the one who would pass on the account of what had happened so that the dead would not have died in vain and so the living could learn. Night, which has sold millions of copies around the world, is the very embodiment of that conviction. It is written in simple, understated language, yet it is emotionally devastating, never to be forgotten.Born in the town of Sighet, Transylvania, Wiesel was a teenager when he and his family were deported to Auschwitz and then Buchenwald. Night is the shattering record of his memories of the death of his mother, father, and little sister, Tsipora; the death of his own innocence; and his despair as a deeply observant Jew confronting the absolute evil of man. Never shall I forget that night, the first night in camp, that turned my life into one long night, writes Wiesel. Never shall I forget . . . even were I condemned to live as long as God Himself. These words are etched into the wall of the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington. Far more than a chronicle of the sadistic realm of the camps, Night also addresses many of the philosophical and personal questions implicit in any serious consideration of the Holocaust.In addition to tributes from President Obama and Samantha Powers, this memorial edition of Night includes the unpublished text of a speech that Wiesel delivered before the United Nations General Assembly on the sixtieth anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz, entitled Will the World Ever Know. These remarks powerfully resonate with Night and with subsequent acts of genocide.…
