IRB: Night by Elie Wiesel

The IRB that I'm reading is called Night by Elie Wiesel. It is centered around the holocaust (1930's - 1940's), and is a true story written from the accounts of Elie Wiesel's survival as a teenager in the Auschwitz concentration camps. The book, written in first person, is said to be very disturbing because it is the record of the author's memories of he death of his family, and also the death of his innocence. Weisel honestly and directly describes life as a prisoner of the Nazis, the conditions of the camp, and treatment of the prisoners.
