A New Translation From The French By Marion Wiesel
Night is Elie Wiesel’s masterpiece, a candid, horrif ic, and deeply poignant autobiographical account of his survival as a teenager in the Nazi death camps. This new translation by Marion Wiesel, Elie’s wife and frequent translator, presents this seminal memoir in the language and spirit truest to the author’s original intent. And in a substantive new preface, Elie reflects on the enduring importance of Night and his lifelong, passionate dedication to ensuring that the world never forgets man’s capacity for inhumanity to man.
Night offers much more than a litany of the daily terrors, everyday perversions, and rampant sadism at Auschwitz and Buchenwald; it also eloquently addresses many of the philosophical as well as personal questions implicit in any serious consideration of what the Holocaust was, what it meant, and what its legacy is and will be.
From the Inside Flap
Born in the town of Sighet, Transylvania, Elie Wiesel was a teenager when he and his family were taken from their home in 1944 to the Auschwitz concentration camp, and then to Buchenwald. Night is the terrifying record of Elie Wiesel's memories of the death of his family, the death of his own innocence, and his despair as a deeply observant Jew confronting the absolute evil of man. This new translation by his wife and most frequent translator, Marion Wiesel, corrects important details and presents the most accurate rendering in English of Elie Wiesel's testimony to what happened in the camps and of his unforgettable message that this horror must never be allowed to happen again. This edition also contains a new preface by the author.

評分Elie Wiesel的Night一口氣看完,中間太多情節震顫靈魂,不僅讓人知曉人內心的黑暗永無下限,也讓人感到一絲不安: 因為這種黑暗也存在於自己的意識深處,人性於考驗下常常是脆弱的。然而絕境中又有靈魂之光時刻迸發,在死屍堆裏最後一次拉起貝多芬樂麯的小提琴手,多像鄭念女士...

評分"Our lives no longer belong to us alone; they belong to all those who need us desperately".
評分WWII。這樣的曆史不是活生生地在墨西哥再現瞭麼。曆史給人的唯一教訓,就是人們從未在曆史中吸取過任何教訓。
評分This book is about life and death. Everyone will be shocked after reading this because it is a true story. Quite plain language in English, but the night in the book is so dark and terrifying. From the depths of the mirror, a corpse was contemplating me. The look in his eyes as he gazed at me has never left me.
