"Night" by Elie Weisel (Germany)

This book explains the life of Elie Weisel during the holocaust. It is very detailed which makes it that much more difficult to read. The images that you get in your head while reading the book are just horrifying. Practically the book tells me that Germany is not somewhere you might want to visit. It also describes the concentration camps where him and his father were sent too.


I might remember everything that happened in the book. The images that will always stick with me are the babies being thrown in to fires. This book made me change my way of thinking. The saddest part was probably where the guy had to throw his own father into the furnace in the Crematory. The most horrifying and angering part was when the babies were thrown into the fire.
