About this audiobook

Narrated by 2026 Audio Publishers Association Hall of Fame inductee George Guidall!

A new translation from the French by Marion Wiesel. Night is Elie Wiesel's masterpiece, a candid, horrific, and deeply poignant autobiographical account of his survival as a teenager in the Nazi death camps.

This new translation by Marion Wiesel, Elie's wife and frequent translator, presents this seminal memoir in the language and spirit truest to the author's original intent. And in a substantive new preface, Elie reflects on the enduring importance of Night and his lifelong, passionate dedication to ensuring that the world never forgets man's capacity for inhumanity to man.

Night offers much more than a litany of the daily terrors, everyday perversions, and rampant sadism at Auschwitz and Buchenwald; it also eloquently addresses many of the philosophical as well as personal questions implicit in any serious consideration of what the Holocaust was, what it meant, and what its legacy is and will be.

Within the first four minutes, it was clear that this audiobook is not the same edition that it is advertised to be. It is translated in an entirely different way. I am requesting a refund.

This was a very good book, I couldn't stop listening to it. Elie's story is very interesting and also gives insights to the horrors he saw and faced during the Holocaust. I couldn't imagine having to see some of those horrific things as a kid like he did.
