We are going to be reading a memoir,  Night, by  Elie Wiesel.

A memoir is an act of writing to recapture a moment in the past. It serves as a snapshot of life, striving to illuminate a specific space of time and to capture it in history. These recollections have strong impacts for both the writer and the reader.
