YMMV / Night

Go To


  • First Installment Wins: Dawn and Day weren't quite as well-received, though they're still critically respected.
  • Fridge Horror: While we know that Elie's little sister Tzippora died, we don't know exactly how but he did mention she was "fair-haired". Knowing that tidbit makes the possibilities worse.
  • Too Bleak, Stopped Caring: You just know how it's going to end and that nothing Eliezer can do can possibly stop it. And everything that can go wrong will.
  • Vindicated by History: Wiesel had difficulty finding a publisher, and the first edition received little notice. In the US, it took three years to sell the first print run of 3,000 copies. Over the years, Night's reputation increased, and after Oprah Winfrey recommended it in 2006, it became a bestseller.
