À propos de cet audio

With the coming of dawn is the coming of death for a captured English officer in British-controlled Palestine. Elisha, a young Israeli freedom fighter, is his executioner. Ordered to kill the officer in reprisal for Britain's execution of a Jewish prisoner, Elisha thinks about his past, a sorrowful memory of the nightmare of Nazi death camps. As the only surviving member of his family, he dreamt of a wonderful future in his promised homeland. But instead, he finds himself closer to committing heartless murder with the approach of daylight.

Dawn presents a haunting glimpse into the soul of one man and a budding nation.

I thought it was a fine story but it's not my favourite book by Elie Wiesel

Not my favourite

This novella is a very harrowing exploration of guilt, identity, and the moral dilemnas of revenge in the aftermath of profound suffering.

Listening to this in 2024 I cannot help but think of the cyclical nature of violence in Palestine in the struggle for liberation.

Elisha's internal conflict mirrors the broader themes of war, justice, trauma, and moral responsibility.

The prose was powerful. This was achingly sad.
