The Long Night is Ernst Israel Bornstein's first-hand account of what he witnessed in seven concentration camps. Written with remarkable insight and raw emotion, The Long Night paints a portrait of human psychology in the darkest of times. Bornstein tells the stories of those who did all they could do to withstand physical and psychological torture, starvation, and sickness, and openly describes those who were forced to inflict suffering on others. The narrative is simple, yet profound; unbridled, honest, and dignified. The Long Night is the extraordinary tale of Ernst Israel Bornstein's tortuous passage through a number of Nazi camps. What he endured reminds us that there were many different experiences of the camps and that there is no single Holocaust narrative. Most of the camps to which Dr Bornstein was sent remain little known today, yet they remind us of just how widespread, vast and destructive the brutal camp system was.
With introduction from former Prime Minister, David Cameron.

Critic reviews
"Both harrowing and inspirational, The Long Night is a chilling reminder of what can happen when we fail to challenge hatred and bigotry. It should be read by anyone who believes we still have lessons to learn from the Holocaust - and anyone who doesn't." (Rt Hon Sajid Javid MP)

"Is it true? you might ask. Absolutely. But if you ask, "Is it the truth?" the answer has to be a resounding "No; pen and ink and individuals' tellings can barely dent the whole truth, just cast glimpses of a story too large and horrible to tell." And the reader couldn't read them all without breaking.
Is this book worth reading? Absolutely! Truth makes the reader - the listener - stronger, braver, more tenderhearted, more compassionate to those around them today who suffer, and more passionate to live out that compassion in tangible ways, courageously speaking up against the inhumanity of man against man.
Herr Bornstein is both prosaic and articulate, but he is clearly a poet at heart. He has been compared to Dostyevski, but I think he might be more of a Solzhenitsyn. You decide.
The "naked horror" - in the words of a survivor .
