Publisher Description
Among the most powerful accounts of the Nazi occupation, "The Diary of Anne Frank" chronicles the life of Anne Frank, a thirteen-year old girl fleeing her home in Amsterdam to go into hiding. Anne reveals the relationships between eight people living under miserable conditions: facing hunger, threat of discovery and the worst horrors the modern world had seen. In these pages, she grows up to be a young woman and a wise observer of human nature. She shares an unparalleled bond with her diary, which holds a detailed account of Anne's close relationship with her father, the lack of daughterly love for her mother, admiration for her sister's intelligence and closeness with her friend Peter. Anne Frank's account offers a compelling self-portrait of a sensitive and spirited young woman who turns thoughtful and learns of the many terrors of the world.
Customer Reviews
Some people shouldn’t write reviews.
I really enjoyed reading the Diary of Anne Frank. Knowing the outcome that Anne Frank and her family were murdered or died of disease, made it difficult reading to the end.
This book is a DIARY written by a teenage girl, who lived under stress of being confined for years in a back room of a building in Amsterdam, yes there will be errors, yes there are typo’s BUT that’s they way she wrote. Some people just shouldn’t write a review, this book is a DIARY not a NOVEL, don’t change history.
A Stunning Account of the Holocaust
Well written by a smart and articulate teenager who didn’t deserve to be hated and be murdered the way she did. Her impeccable storytelling takes you into the hiding during the war in a way that is both imaginative and realistic. A must read.
