 | The Gates of the Forest by Elie Wiesel
Gregor--a teenaged boy who is the lone survivor of his family--hides from the Germans during World War Two in a cave in the forest, where he meets a mysterious stranger who saves his life; in the village, posing as a deaf-mute peasant boy; and among the partisans of the Jewish resistance. But where, he asks, is God hiding, and where can one find redemption in a world that God has abandoned?This story, punctuated by themes of friendship, fear, sacrifice, and betrayal, takes us deep into the ghost-filled inner world of the survivor.
