Wiesel, who died this year at the age of 88, wrote this account of his concentration camp experiences at Auschwitz and Buchenwald at age 15-17 from 1943-1945.  In stark and specific details, he narrates the horrors and dehumanization of that experience where he lost his parents and younger sister.  The absolute unbelievability of man’s inhumanity to man and the horror of the Final Solution are conveyed in this slim volume.  Wiesel was awarded the 1986 Nobel Prize for Peace.
