Anne Frank’s Diary of a Young Girl is one of the most memorable books in the face of the holocaust that Nazi Germany and its collaborators unleashed on European Jews between 1941 and 1945 across German-occupied Europe.

Anne Frank was a German-born Jew hiding in Amsterdam with her family in 1942 when Nazis occupied Holland. She started keeping a diary in hiding - a diary she’d received for her 13th birthday from her parents. Beginning in 1942 till the family was apprehended by Gestapo in 1944, Anne Frank recorded her experiences of life under siege. She later died of typhus in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945.

Sometimes joyous, sometimes bleak, sometimes humorous, Anne Frank’s writings offered hope in the face of the bleakest hour that humanity witnessed in the form of the rise of Nazism in Europe. First published posthumously in 1947 in her native Dutch, The Diary of Anne Frank went on to receive worldwide acclaim. It was translated in 60 languages and made into plays and movies quite a few times. After seven decades of existence, this little book remains one of the most iconic symbols against Nazi oppression and an ode to the undying human spirit.
