Welcome to Litsy!

Zissen Pesach. Chag Pesach kasher vesame'ach.

“How are we ever to disarm evil and abolish death as a means to an end? How are we ever to break the cycle of violence and rage? Can terror coexist with justice? Does murder call for murder, despair for revenge? Can hate engender anything but hate?”
Elisha is a young Jewish man, a Holocaust survivor, and an Israeli freedom fighter in British-controlled Palestine who is ordered to kill a British officer at dawn .

Well, I only read 2 hours yesterday bc I got sucked in to the Murdaugh case here in the USA. For those of you in others countries, it's a case where a guy is accused of killing his wife and son. Anyway, that's the reason for so low number. I plan on doing laundry, reading and taking new pup outside today 😊

First this book is nothing like Night. Night is a non-fiction book, this one is fiction. It looks at Elisha, a boy, coming face to face with committing murder. I think Wiesel probably wrote it to see if he could have killed some Nazi when he was in Buchenwald and Auschwitz . It was okay. Nowhere as good as 'Night'. There is one more left, 'Day' I will probably read it just to finish the trilogy.

This small paperback called out to me from a neighborhood #LittleFreeLibrary. Author Elie Wiesel, one of my heroes, recalls in different ways the mysteries of the #Holocaust...which can never be explained.
