"Night"


This morning I finished reading Oprah's current book club choice, Night by Nobel Peace Prize winner, Elie Wiesel. It was a short read but powerful and sustaining. It was raw, honest, emotional, and horrific. I recommend it to everyone.

In reading his prize acceptance speech following the book, these words have stayed with me:

"Human suffering anywhere concerns men and women everywhere." - Elie Wiesel

I think I cried at least 3/4 of the story! It was such a touching and REAL account! I read it a year ago and will never forget it!

Great choice for Oprah spec after the "Frey" incident. This can bring back her accountability.
