Elie Wiesel

View through CrossRef
Wiesel is perhaps the exemplary witness, insisting on the ethical urgency of testimony; but his books also revolve around the difficulty of speaking about the unspeakable, and even entertain – even if finally rejecting – the temptation of remaining silent. The chapter discusses some of the problems of witnessing and literary representation in Wiesel’s testimonial and fictional works.
