"The author...has built knowledge into artistic fiction."--"The New
York Times Book Review"
Elisha is a young Jewish man, a Holocaust survivor, and an Israeli
freedom fighter in British-controlled Palestine; John Dawson is the
captured English officer he will murder at dawn in retribution for
the British execution of a fellow freedom fighter. The night-long
wait for morning and death provides "Dawn," Elie Wiesel's ever more
timely novel, with its harrowingly taut, hour-by-hour narrative.
Caught between the manifold horrors of the past and the troubling
dilemmas of the present, Elisha wrestles with guilt, ghosts, and
ultimately God as he waits for the appointed hour and his act of
assassination. "Dawn" is an eloquent meditation on the compromises,
justifications, and sacrifices that human beings make when they
murder other human beings.
