Day is a moving novel of how a soul can be deeply affected by witnessing evil. There is sadness to it that can only be understood to a certain level. I think the entire trilogy does a good job of letting readers into the heart and soul of a Holocaust survivor. It is a must-read for adults and mature high school students could learn a lot from it, too.
