Brief review: Elie Wiesel was the winner of 1986 Nobel Peace Prize. But before that, when he was just a 15 year old teenager, he was put into the Nazi concentration camp during World War II. Unbelievably, he was among the few who survived the traumatic experience at the camps. He wrote this heart breaking real account of his experience at the camps after 10 years of silence. This is a story of how he survived and what happened at the camps. His faith was consumed forever. There were no Gods; only the gallows. You need to read this to know what happened in those camps during the World War II. I have read stories of holocaust before but this broke my heart even more. Sometimes, it is important to know how bad life could treat you so that we respect it more than we do.
