First Edition of Open Heart; Signed by Nobel Laureate Elie Wiesel
First edition of this profoundly intimate, deeply affecting summing up of life so far, from one of the most cherished moral voices of all time. Octavo, original boards. Boldly signed by Elie Wiesel on the front free endpaper. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Chip Kidd. Translated from the French by Marion Wiesel. Rare and desirable signed.
Eighty-two years old, facing emergency heart surgery and his own mortality, Elie Wiesel reflects back on his life. Emotions, images, faces, and questions flash through his mind. His family before and during the unspeakable Event. The gifts of marriage, children, and grandchildren that followed. In his writing, in his teaching, in his public life, has he done enough for memory and for the survivors? His ongoing questioning of God—where has it led? Is there hope for mankind? The world’s tireless ambassador of tolerance and justice gives us a luminous account of hope and despair, an exploration of the love, regrets, and abiding faith of a remarkable man.
