IRB Intro -- "Night" by Elie Wiesel

The IRB I have chosen for the first marking period is "Night," by Elie Wiesel, the 1986 winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. Night is an autobiographical account of the experiences undergone by Elie and his father within Auschwitz -- a Jewish concentration camp -- during the Jewish Holocaust. The text focuses on both Elie's battle for survival and his battle with God as he tries to understand the cruelty plaguing the world around him.
