Summary: Dawn
Review: Elie Wiesel once again does a wonderful job of putting his heart and soul into words to share with the whole world. After reading "Night," I couldn't wait to read on into his fascinating experiences of being a Jew during World War II. I never gave much thought before to what goes through the mind of a murderer before he takes a life. Now I have a pretty good idea. Definietly read the book!

Summary: One of the best books I've ever read
Review: I am a I had to read this book for my summer reading. I didn't expect much, and left it till the end of August. However, this book nearly brought tears two my eyes as I watched, clearer than a movie could show, a boy's family, teachers, and those he had known witness him as he is about to become a murderer. The images were crystal clear, and the narator wasted no time with anymore detail than a person observing the events would recall. This book provoked alot of thought in me, especially since my father fought for Israel's freedom during the Yom Kippur war. Was he a killer? Even he is not entirely sure.

Summary: Disturbing and thought provoking
Review: In an era when New Age tripe like Jonathan Livingston Seagull and Starhawk is gobbled up by people who want to think that everything is nifty, it is more important than ever to know that Elie Wiesel is still with us illuminating the darkened corners of the soul and struggling desperately to find meaning in a chaotic seemingly sadistic universe. Written after Night and considered by many to be a sequel, this is the story of a Holocaust survivor who is ordered to kill a British soldier. Where many historians see this as a glorious time in the history of Israel, when Jews stopped victims and fought back against the British imperialists, this book brings it down to one character. Beset by guilt and the ghosts of the dead, he can see no important difference between this one execution and the atrocities perpetrated against his family. And while he knows that this action is of a necessity if Israel is ever going to be a reality he is tortured by his doubts and his feelings of remorse. This is a powerful book and one that doesn't leave you when you finish it. Ironically, it's a more disturbing novel than Night as Night has a discernable villain in the Nazis, but Dawn has a character struggling to figure out whether or not he is as the Nazis. Confusing in places and dull in others, this is still one of the best post-Holocaust novels around.

Summary: So So!
Review: In the begining and half of the book Elie Wiesel keeps your attention wired but I feel dissapointed with the end of the story. I was waiting for something more. My mistake was I didn't read Night which they say is the first part of this issue.

Summary: Dawn
Review: The book it's self as a work of fiction is not the best. Mainly it is just Mr. Weisel's thoughts on how his life could have turned out otherwise. But this is not the book's purpose, only it's becoming. The book looks into the human mind, specifically that of a soldier, and sees how this soldier can be brought to do what they do. It also raises an idea that we are only an acumulation of what people and events have ocurred in our past. Therefore the book has a psycological presence. And as books are intended to do it stimulates the mind and prevokes thought. It also can be read in a couple of hours. It is like economy psycology, more bang for your buck.

Summary: An alright Book
Review: This book is a good book to read if you like those books that take a long time to get into. The point didn't seem to come too quick in this book. When it did come it wasn't as exciting as i thought it was going to be. This book had good structure and stlye. These two aspects made the book somewhat enjoyable to read. The structure made you want to keep on reading. The style gave you differnt feelings of how it felt to be there at that time.

Summary: A profound look into the mind
Review: This book keeps a fairly slow reading pace, but perhaps it is to allow the reader to soak in everything the author is trying to say. Dawn is an amazing look into the mind of a holocaust surviver, and the difficult questions that many were plauged with. Is it morally okay for the once tormented victim to become a killer in the name of justice? Where does God play a role in the life of a surviver? Eli Weisel empties his soul into the novel and makes the reader truely think. This book is well worth the 2 hours it takes to read it.

Summary: Sleeping through Dawn
Review: This book was a sleeper. There was not a lot of action for you action lovers. This book was made up of memeories and thoughts. Nothing happened. It did however make the reader think what is right or wrong. But if a reader is wanting drama or action, not thinking, then find another book.
