By Anne Frank, Susan Massotty (Translator)
A young girl hides from Nazis, documenting her life in a secret attic, revealing courage and humanity's frailty.
In Nazi-occupied Holland, thirteen-year-old Anne Frank hides with her family in a secret attic. Her diary captures the tension, fear, and fleeting moments of joy during their two-year confinement. As Anne navigates adolescence amidst the constant threat of discovery, her words reveal a profound resilience and a poignant glimpse into her inner world. This uncut edition unveils her complex relationship with her mother and her emerging self-awareness, offering a deeper understanding of her indomitable spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity.
For almost fifty years, Anne Frank’s diary has moved millions with its testament to the human spirit’s indestructibility, but readers have never seen the full text of this beloved book–until now. This new translation, performed by Winona Ryder, restores nearly one third of Anne’s entries excised by her father in previous editions, revealing her burgeoning sexuality, her stormy relationship with her mother, and more.
