Night by Elie Wiesel
Lord of the Flies by William Golding
Dawn by Elie Wiesel
Survival In Auschwitz by Primo Levi
Eliezer and his family were uprooted during the Holocaust, placed in a concentration camp and forced to survive the most inhuman genocide know to man. Through the fight to survive Eliezer was desensitized and lost his most sacred connection to God. The book details Eliezer’s life within a concentration camp and his struggle to find a meaning to live.
This book was a gripping story of survival which brought many tough situations which most adolescent youth would not encounter, but many adolescent readers find a connection with Eliezer because he is their same age. For that reason I would suggest this book to all adolescent readers because it portrays a lesson which the youth can learn from.
