''The Oath'' is the English title of ''Le serment de Kolvillag'', a novel by Elie Wiesel. It tells the story of Azriel, the only surviving Jewish member of the small Hungarian town of Kolvillag after a pogrom perpetrated by neighboring Christians. Azriel carries the secret of Kollvilag's destruction within him, forbidden to share his experiences. However, when Azriel meets a young man on the brink of suicide fifty years later, he realizes that he must pass on his secret to save the young man's life - yet he is bound by his promise to the dead. ''Le serment de Kolvillag'' is a powerful work told in fragments - the point of view changes from present-day Azriel, the Azriel of the past, the young man in the present, and the young man's past. It is unstructured to the point where it borders on Surrealism. Some of the themes of ''Le serment de Kolvillag'' include pogroms, death, old age, secrecy, silence, and modernity. ==See also== *''Dawn (Wiesel novel)'' *''Night'' *''Twilight'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Oath」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
