Powerful and captivating. Sometimes it was easy to forget these pages were written by a teenage girl. And though she'll never know it, she managed to achieve her dream.
This is not the most emotional Holocaust book I ever read. I was touched, very deeply, but not necessarily as a result of Holocaust (Unless, of course, after the ending, when the deaths are reported. I'm not a heartless bitch.)Maybe because Anne Frank didn't experiment the worst in Holocaust or, I c...
Le papier a plus de patience que les gens.Un moment je pensais: "Je m'en vais lui donner un de ces coups sur la tronche, il ira valser contre le mur avec tous ses mensonges",et l'instant d'après je me disais: "Reste calme, ce type ne mérite pas que tu te mettes dans cet état!".Qui d'autre que moi li...
Wednesday, April 5, 1944I don’t want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I never met. I want to go on living even after my death!
Anne Frank’s The Diary of a Young Girl is one of those books that I have heard of since I was a wee lad and never got around to reading until now that I am no longer a lad (but still rather wee in stature). A few weeks ago I was looking at one of those “Books to Read Before you Die” lists (I forget ...
Original Title: Het Achterhuis For me, this has always been more a symbol than a novel. I know Anne Frank was planning on publishing her diaries and was rewriting them, but as she never got to finish her work, we're actually reading her drafts (which are very good). It's not just a story of living...
Aunque lo considere un libro de muchísimo valor histórico y piense que es necesario leerlo por lo menos una vez para que no nos olvidemos de lo que pasó, para que siempre esté en la memoria de las personas que no se debe repetir algo así; el libro no terminó atrayéndome. No me parece malo, al contra...
“Women should be respected as well! Generally speaking, men are held in great esteem in all parts of the world, so why shouldn't women have their share? Soldiers and war heroes are honored and commemorated, explorers are granted immortal fame, martyrs are revered, but how many people look upon women...
I remember searching for this book at the library in my early teens. What I found instead was a diary written by a young Bosnian girl during the Bosnian war — Zlata's Diary. That made an impact because the war was still fresh on my mind and she was so close to my age. I imagine that's how people f...
Anne Frank's diary is amazing, eloquent, poignant and moving. Anne, at only 13-14 years old, wrote such an amazing and eloquent piece of literature. Anne thought about things most teenagers today don't really think about- she was intelligent and her story is so inspiring. Even though I read this for...
