Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl
Category: Biography
Author: Anne Frank
Copyright/published Year: 1993 by Bantam Books
ISBN: 0553296981
Binding: Paperback
Discovered in the attic in which she spent the last years of her
life, Anne Frank's remarkable diary has since become a world
classic -- a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and an
eloquent testament to the human spirit.
In 1942, with Nazis occupying Holland, a thirteen-year-old Jewish
girl and her family fled their home in Amsterdam and went into
hiding. For the next two years, until their whereabouts were
betrayed to the Gestapo, they and another family lived cloistered
in the "Secret Annex" of an old office building. Cut off from the
outside world, they faced hunger, boredom, the constant cruelties
of living in confined quarters, and the ever-present threat of
discovery and death. In her diary Anne Frank recorded vivid
impressions of her experiences during this period. By turns
thoughtful, moving, and amusing, her account offers a fascinating
commentary on human courage and frailty and a compelling
self-portrait of a sensitive and spirited young woman whose
promise was tragically cut short.
