The Diary of Anne Frank

Více o knize

Thirteen-year-old Anne Frank, with her parents and sister and four other people, went into hiding in the sealed-off back rooms of an Amsterdam office building in 1942, when the Nazi invaders intensified their persecution of Jews. For two years they remained safe. In August 1944 they were betrayed. Anne died in the ghastly concentration camp at Belsen. All the others perished too, except her father. Anne's astonishing diary was found by accident. Simply but movingly it records the strains of her difficult life, the problems of growing up in hiding, and her unswerving faith in her religion. Known and loved throughout the world, The Diary of Anne Frank is an unforgettable story of human spirit — the intimate and courageous account of a young woman's unique experiences in the face of terrible suffering.
