Description

The Night lasted five years and eight days.Before the Night began, Ernst Bornstein was a precocious eighteen-year-old who had an ordinary family with three siblings, two parents, and a large circle of friends and relatives. But in the autumn of 1939, decades of anti-Semitic propaganda turned into full-fledged violence. Bornstein’s family was subsequently sent to Auschwitz where his parents and siblings were gassed to death.
The Long Night   is Bornstein’s firsthand account of what he witnessed in seven concentration camps. Written with remarkable insight and raw emotion,   The Long Night   paints a portrait of human psychology in the darkest of times. Bornstein tells the stories of those who did all they could do to withstand physical and psychological torture, starvation, and sickness, and openly describes those who were forced to inflict suffering on others. The narrative is simple, yet profound; unbridled, honest, and dignified. The Long Night   was written shortly after the war when the author’s memories were fresh and emotions ran strong.
Originally published in German in 1967 as   Die Lange Nacht , this is the first English translation of this work.
