Delve into the spiritual journey of Elie Wiesel through this comprehensive study of his fiction. From the depths of despair to the celebration of life, Wiesel's fifteen novels offer a poignant reflection on the human condition, with his personal experiences as a Holocaust survivor serving as a backdrop. Spanning from Dawn (1961) to Hostage (2010), this unique exploration is the only one of its kind, encompassing Wiesel's entire fictional oeuvre originally penned in French. Léonard Rosmarin has spent more than fifteen years studying, exploring, and analyzing the novels of Elie Wiesel. This book is the culmination of his intensive studies and provides new insight into Elie Wiesel, clearly establishing him as as an exceptional writer of fiction. As Rosmarin states: "After traversing the night of flames and horror of the Holocaust, Wiesel told me he felt he absolutely had to create imaginary destinies in order to see more clearly within himself. Paradoxically, it is in his novels more so than in his non-fiction that he truly bares his soul.".
