Story
Over thirty million people have read The Diary of a Young Girl, the journal teen-aged Anne Frank kept while living in an attic with her family and four other people in Amsterdam during World War II, until the Nazis arrested them and sent them to a concentration camp. But despite the many works—journalism, books, plays and novels—devoted to Anne’s story, none has ever conclusively explained how these eight people managed to live in hiding undetected for over two years—and who or what finally brought the Nazis to their door.

Seventy years ago, Joe Rubinstein walked out of a Nazi concentration camp. Until now, his story has been hidden from the world. Shortly before dawn on a frigid morning in Radom, Poland, 21-year-old Joe answered a knock at the door of the cottage he shared with his widowed mother and siblings. German soldiers forced him onto a crowded open-air truck. Wearing only an undershirt and shorts, Joe was left on the truck with no protection from the cold. By the next morning, several around him would be dead. From there, things got worse for young Joe, much worse.

Publisher's summary
The definitive edition.
Discovered in the attic in which she spent the last years of her life, Anne Frank’s remarkable diary has since become a world classic - a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and an eloquent testament to the human spirit.
In 1942, with Nazis occupying Holland, a 13-year-old Jewish girl and her family fled their home in Amsterdam and went into hiding. For the next two years, until their whereabouts were betrayed to the Gestapo, they and another family lived cloistered in the “Secret Annex” of an old office building. Cut off from the outside world, they faced hunger, boredom, the constant cruelties of living in confined quarters, and the ever-present threat of discovery and death. In her diary Anne Frank recorded vivid impressions of her experiences during this period. By turns thoughtful, moving, and amusing, her account offers a fascinating commentary on human courage and frailty and a compelling self-portrait of a sensitive and spirited young woman whose promise was tragically cut short.
Critic reviews
"The new edition reveals a new depth to Anne's dreams, irritations, hardship, and passions....There may be no better way to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the end of World War II than to reread
The Diary of a Young Girl, a testament to an indestructive nobility of spirit in the face of pure evil." (Chicago Tribune)
“The single most compelling personal account of the Holocaust...remains astonishing and excruciating.” (The New York Times Book Review)

Julie would remember her happy days at Aunt Cordelia’s forever. Running through the spacious rooms, singing on rainy nights in front of the blazing fireplace. There were rides in the woods on Peter the Great, the races with Danny Trevort. Maybe best of all were the precious moments alone in her room at night, gazing at the sea of stars. But there was sadness too - the painful jealousy Julie felt after her sister got married, the tragic death of a schoolmate, and the bitter disappointment of her first love. Sometimes it all seemed like too much to handle.

For eight weeks in 1945, as Berlin fell to the Russian army, a young woman kept a daily record of life in her apartment building and among its residents. The anonymous author depicts her fellow Berliners in all their humanity, as well as their cravenness, corrupted first by hunger and then by the Russians. A Woman in Berlin tells of the complex World War II relationship between civilians and an occupying army and the shameful indignities to which women in a conquered city are always subject—the mass rape suffered by all, regardless of age or infirmity.

But despite the many works—journalism, books, plays and novels—devoted to Anne’s story, none has ever conclusively explained how these eight people managed to live in hiding undetected for over two years—and who or what finally brought the Nazis to their door.

Anne Frank’s story is definitely a tragic one; every aspect of it is steeped in the tragedy of the Holocaust. But sadness is not the only thing the account of Anne Frank’s life has to offer - it’s a powerful story about a girl who wasn’t afraid to stand up for what was right. She faced the worst that humanity has to offer, and she did not let it corrupt her. Even the evil oppression of Hitler’s Nazi regime could never crush the indomitable spirit of Anne Frank. In this audiobook, you will discover her life; this is her story.

A Brilliant Masterpiece Diary Of A Young Girl’s Heart
I LOVE THIS DIARY: Must Audio!! WHY?
I wish I had listened to this when I was younger. It heart felt she put all her emotions into her diary like we all do. Her story is sad at the end but very well known how the war treated her family and her. I went to Amsterdam to see the Annex she was kept in. She describes it in her diary to a T. Her spirit is felt there. Looking in the room where she slept imaging the words in her book brought her diary to life. The place she had to live in was dark and the fact nature calmed her was sad for me because she couldn’t go outside. The outside grounds are beautiful. I left there finishing this wonderful diary of hers. Shattering by the thought of her being and soul ending as it did. So glad she left me something to understand what war was for children teenagers adults but most importantly to see life through her eyes. This was enough for me to think of how lucky we are to have her story.
Thank You Anna Frank your Diary lives in my heart.

A heartbreaking story come alive
We've all read "Diary of a Young Girl" by Anne Frank, but we've never heard the pain and fear that might have been her voice in such a way. Selma Blair puts her iconic "once a teenage, always a teenager" voice to work here and brings the natural life of a teenager alive, while breathing in the pain and fear that surrounds her hiding.

A timeless classic
Few people can articulate the ordeal of living in hiding. Even fewer can do so at the age of 15 as Anne does in her case. Her words are well beyond what I was thinking about as a teenager. All this time after the book was written I stand by the characterization of this being one of the most riveting accounts of the Holocaust. This is a must read/listen for anyone looking to know more about the life of an extraordinary young girl.
