The Worlds of Elie Wiesel: an Overview of His Career and His Major Themes

by Jack Kolbert

The Worlds of Elie Wiesel: an Overview af His Career and His Major Themes is a biography written by Jack Kolbert, a personal friend of world-famous author and Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel. Focusing on Wiesel's personal struggles against human beings both malevolent and indifferent to malevolence, as well as his trials of faith with regard to a God that permitted the Holocaust, The Worlds of Elie Wiesel is ultimately a testimony to Wiesel's conviction in the solidarity of the Jewish people. A first-rate companion book to Wiesel's work, The Worlds of Elie Wiesel is very highly recommended to students of Holocaust Studies, as well as the nonspecialist general reader of biographies focusing on influential men who have lived through "interesting times."
