Description
Kimelman writes of Wiesel's unique ability to weave the ancient stories of the Rabbis into the modern landscape, bringing greater meaning and humainty to them. Likewise, Kimelman believes Wiesel is able to shed light on the horrors of the Holocaust through the lenses of these stories from an ancient past.
