Summary

An enduring classic of Holocaust literature, Night offers a personal and unforgettable account of the appalling horrors of Hitler's reign of terror. Through the eyes of 14-year-old Eliezer, we behold the tragic fate of the Jews from the little town of Sighet. Even as they are stuffed into cattle cars bound for Auschwitz, the townspeople refuse to believe rumors of anti-Semitic atrocities. Not until they are marched toward the blazing crematory at the camp's "reception center" does the terrible truth sink in. Narrator George Guidall intensifies the emotional impact as blind hope turns to utter horror. His performance captures the profound agony of young Eliezer as he witnesses the suffering and death of his family and loses all that he holds sacred.

  • This audiobook offers a firsthand account of the Holocaust through the perspective of a young child. It is a must-listen for anyone who wants to truly understand the human experience during this tragic period in history.
  • I'm on my second go-around with this book. After devouring (and revisiting) William Shirer's The rise and fall of the third Reich, I craved even more insight into this dark chapter of our past. The way the genocide transpired is utterly mind-boggling, especially when you delve into the account of a survivor who returned to the author's village and passionately condemned the Nazis, urging his fellow Jews to escape while they still had the chance. Regrettably, no one heeded his warnings until it was already too late.
  • I absolutely loved this book! It was such a fantastic read and I'm really glad I decided to buy it. The narrator did an incredible job and added so much depth to the story. I know I will never forget this heart-wrenching tale of tragic loss.
