Overview
Carole J. Lambert analyzes Elie Wiesel's novels clearly and cogently via two key themes: theodicy and friendship. She shows how the angry, embittered Holocaust survivor protagonists approach the God who seems to have broken His covenant at Auschwitz. This approach to God is made through friendships, some real and some mystical. Lambert's analyses render Wiesel's novels accessible to Americans who may already appreciate his essays and memoirs.Book Details
