“One of the greatest books of the [last] century” – The Guardian
“In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart …”
Anne Frank’s The Diary of a Young Girl is a deeply moving and unforgettable account of a teenage girl’s life during the horrors of World War II. First published over sixty years ago, it has resonated with millions of readers worldwide.
In July 1942, thirteen-year-old Anne Frank and her family went into hiding in an Amsterdam warehouse to escape Nazi occupation. Over the next two years, Anne chronicles her thoughts, feelings, and frustrations as she lives in isolation with her family. Her diary provides a unique and poignant window into the mind of a young girl who, despite the circumstances, maintains her belief in the goodness of people.
The diary ends abruptly in August 1944, when Anne and her family are betrayed. Since its publication in 1947, this work has captivated generations, with new editions including revised forewords, afterwords, and helpful glossaries to enrich the reader’s experience.
