First Thus. Hardcover.
First Edition of this new translation by Marion Wiesel, with a new preface by the Author. With a foreword by Francois Mauriac.
The author's penetrating and profound account of the Nazi death camps. Born in the town of Sighet, Transylvania, Wiesel was a teenager in 1944 when he and his family were taken from their home in to Auschwitz and later to Buchenwald. Night is the terrifying record of Elie Wiesel's memories of the death of his family, the death of his innocence, and his despair as a deeply observant Jew confronting the absolute evil of man. This new translation by his wife, Marion Wiesel, corrects important details and presents the most accurate rendering in English of Elie Wiesel's testimony as to what happened in the camps and repeats the important message that this unforgettable horror must never be allowed to happen again.
