It took a while for me to get used to the writing style, but once I did I  was invested in what Elisha would decide. I can’t say that I agree with his choice or his reasoning behind it, I understand it. Even though the characters and plot line are fictional, the questions that Wiesel asked of the protagonist are not which makes this a compelling read. I read this because it is the second novel in his Night Trilogy, the first was more memorable because it was a memoir but this one definitely deserves to be looked at if you would want an inside look into what continues to haunt the people that survived the holocaust.
