About the Work

The latest addition to Assouline's The Light of collection showcases the captivating and dreamlike excerpts from Elie Wiesel's acclaimed 1968 novel, A Beggar in Jerusalem. The book, titled The Light of Jerusalem, is a visual treat that features Jean-Michel Berts's stunning black-and-white photographs taken at dawn. The photographs capture the essence of this ancient crossroad of civilizations and empires, a bustling center of commerce and devout spirituality. With its complex and layered history, Jerusalem is a city that blends the ancient and modern, the religious and secular, the political and spiritual, and the historic and timeless. This remarkable volume captures the power and mystery of Jerusalem's monuments, streets, gardens, and panoramas, reflecting the city's multiculturalism and rich heritage.

About the Author

Elie Wiesel, originally from Transylvania, was sent to Auschwitz with his family at the age of fifteen. After the war, he studied in Paris and became a journalist, writing over sixty books spanning both fiction and non-fiction. Wiesel has been recognized with numerous awards for his literary and human rights work, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the Grand-Croix in the French Legion of Honor. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1986 and, together with his wife Marion, founded The Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity, an organization dedicated to fighting indifference, intolerance, and injustice.

"Assouline is more than a publishing house, it is a lifestyle brand."
