Elie Wiesel is a master storyteller with the ability to use
storytelling as a form of activism. From his landmark memoir Night
to his novels and numerous retellings of Hasidic legends, Wiesel's
literature emphasizes storytelling, and he frequently refers to
himself as a storyteller rather than an author or historian. In
this work, essays examine Wiesel's roots in Jewish storytelling
traditions; influences from religious, folk, and secular sources;
education; Yiddish background; Holocaust experience; and writing
style. Emphasized throughout is Wiesel's use of multiple sources in
an effort to reach diverse audiences.
