Fascinating book. A daily routine of Anne and the Annex members. I loved the way she describes the happenings. Must read to know her life in the Annex for nearly 2 years.
The Diary of a Young Girl has survived the greatest destruction of humanity and lived to tell the future generations of the horrible times of the second world war. In this diary, Anne writes down her daily life, the difficulties they had to face while hiding with utmost care. They could not live life in a normal way because of the people that were working in the same building who had no idea that Anne Frank's family was hiding in the above floor.
Anne Frank's family and Mr. van Daan's family and family friend of theirs namely Dussel go into hiding in 1942. They hide in the factory of Anne Franks father's friend who helps the 8 people. They hide for 2 years and in 1944, they are arrested by the Nazi and sent to concentration camps. Out of the 8 people, only Otto Frank, father of Anne survives to publish the diary of Anne Frank.
In some parts of the book, Anne Franks comes out as straightforward who does not keep anything to herself and says right to the person in the face. But sometimes, in the passages about Peter, she says how she has to be patient and not rush things fearing she might come out as modern. Throughout the book, she has a love-hate relationship with her mother, father, and her sister. She also had a changing opinion about Peter whom she starts loving at the end of the book. Throughout the book, Anne battles with herself about the various people with whom she is living. It is only natural for a teenage girl to have confusing thoughts at that age.
This is an important book which everyone should read in their lifetime to know impact caused by the Systematic elimination of Jews by Hitler.
I can't rate this because we weren't supposed to read it...
