Night is one of the masterpieces of Holocaust literature. First
published in 1960, it is the autobiographical account of an
adolescent boy and his father in Auschwitz. Elie Wiesel writes of
their battle for survival, and of his battle with God for a way to
understand the wanton cruelty he witnesses each day. In the short
novel Dawn (1961), a young man who has survived the Second World
War and settled in Palestine is apprenticed to a Jewish underground
movement, where the former victim is commanded to execute a British
officer who has been taken hostage. In Day (previously titled The
Accident, 1962), Wiesel questions the limits of the spirit and the
self: Can Holocaust survivors forge a new life without the memories
of the old? Wiesel's trilogy offers meditations on mankind's
attraction to violence and on the temptation of self-destruction.
