Night

The text was incredibly lucid, devoid of fluff (the translation I read was that of Marion Wiesel). At times it left me shaking while I read, I had to stop several times to bury my head in my hands.

One set of three lines stuck with me throughout the rest of the book after I’d read them: “After the war, I learned the fate of those who had remained at the infirmary. They were, quite simply, liberated by the Russians, two days after the evacuation” (Page 82).

Incredible book, I read in one sitting.
