Review of 'The night trilogy' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Every account of Holocaust is moving and when Elie Wiesel - being a survivor of Auschwitz - gives you the horrifying details of what happened in those concentration camps, you can't help but wonder - Can humans really be so monstrous?

I cannot even begin to imagine what Elie must've gone through experiencing these brutalities - watching a son beat his father to death over a piece of bread, when every moment you were wondering whether the next will be your last - and all this at a tender age of sixteen? No wonder he lost faith in God!

- "I have more faith in Hitler than in anyone else. He alone has kept his promises, all his promises, to the Jewish people."
