This book allows readers to compare the three versions of the diary itself: Anne's original entries; the diary as she herself edited it in the hiding place of the "Secret Annex"; and the version most popularly known, as edited by Anne's father, Otto Frank, and a Dutch publishing house after World War II, when they removed certain family and sexual references.
The book also includes biographical information on the Frank family and a summary of critical events during and after the family's arrest--including how the Nazi authorities learned about the Franks and their secret hiding place.
First published in Dutch in 1986 as De Dagboeken van Anne Frank, by Staatsuitgeverij.
The Works of Anne Frank Reviews
-
How can you rate someone's diary? What I can say is she would have changed the world and made a huge difference in women rights and much more. I guess she made a difference in a different way.

Always love reading about Anne frank.
-
fortemente umana e altruista, ancora di più nei suoi racconti ho potuto vedere l'ideale potente di una vita così breve, appena quindici anni e mezzo. una lettura giovane e forte; e soprattutto il sogno di una scrittrice, per sempre consegnato alla memoria dell'umanità.

Aangezien dit 1 van de eerste "volwassen" boeken was die ik al 7 of 8 jarige al las, heeft dit boek enorme nostalgische waarden en betekenis voor mij.
Elke keer als ik het herlees lees ik het toch anders of valt me iets anders op. Deze keer waren dat haar feministische trekjes, prachtig en underrated denk ik.

Papier/audio? Ik heb eindelijk deze editie van het boek gekocht en dus meteen fysiek gelezen.
Herlezen: Ja, nooit genoeg. -
"I've found that there is always some beauty left -- in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself; these can all help you..."
This book is a gem, though a difficult one to rate and review. For starters, The Diary of a Young Girl, is a hauntingly powerful glimpse into the mindset of a young girl as she goes through things, such terribly evil things, that no human being, let alone a child, should have had to experience. Yet it is truth. It happened. As a historical document, it is worth reading. The hard part of rating and reviewing such a thing comes with the fact that it is so hard to hear these truths, to know the darkness of what this child, this little girl, actually lived through. Of course it’s important, invaluable really, but at the same time it’s painful, bitter...and as a diary, almost too intimate to be read. It’s greatly disturbing. But it is powerful and deeply inspirational, however harrowing...
For all of those that judge this book by the same standards as they would any conventional fiction novel, NEWS FLASH, it’s a diary. It’s not meant to be a story. It wasn’t written with the intent of being entertainment or a literary masterpiece. It should not be read for enjoyments sake alone. The characters in this book are real, the things they went through are real. Anne was, IS, a real girl, not a fictionalized heroine. Her story should be told and remembered. For those that criticize her personality, well that’s just sad. For those that criticize the writing, even sadder.
"Where there's hope, there's life. It fills us with fresh courage and makes us strong again."
This book deserves a solid 5 stars by historical significance standards alone, not to mention how enlightening it was. But honestly, Anne Frank was a treasure, a bright young girl who loved to contemplate, to read and write. She was intelligent, feisty and passionate. Her diary reflects the phases of her short life, going from naive innocence to matured strength through the sufferings and hardships. I highly recommend this read.
"I don't think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains."
And her voice will remain...
[OFFICIAL RATING: 5 STARS]
FURTHER QUOTATIONS:
"I wish to go on living even after my death.”
"It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality. It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart."
"In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit."
"Paper is more patient than man."
"I can't imagine how anyone can say: "I'm weak," and then remain so. After all, if you know it, why not fight against it, why not try to train your character? The answer was: "Because it's so much easier not to!"
"An empty day, though clear and bright,
Is just as dark as any night."
"We aren't allowed to have any opinions. People can tell you to keep your mouth shut, but it doesn't stop you having your own opinion. Even if people are still very young, they shouldn't be prevented from saying what they think."
"I need to have something besides a husband and children to devote myself to! I 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’ve never met. I want to go on living even after my death!"
"This is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." -
Nunca en la primaria me lo habían hecho leer y tipo si ya se que tengo 15 y blabla, pero no.
En fin, la historia obviamente es muuy triste y dolorosa, no tan solo por Anna, su familia y los Van Pels, si no por todos los judíos. Es un diario de una chica de 13 a 15 años, es denso en algunas partes pero, sigue siendo un diario. No creo poder encontrarle "una nota", es un diario, imaginense si ahora deciden venir a juzgar mi diario por algo que me pasó, es decir, no se si me explico, pero sigue siendo el diario de una chica, con sus enamoramientos, peleas con su familia, situaciones incómodas, mañanas molestas, etc, etc.
El epílogo es lo peor de todo creo, fue muy impactante ver como mueren cada uno de los refugiados. No encuentro las palabras. Y más que nada, me imagino a Otto Frank leyendolo y llorando con los pensamientos de Anna, cuando dice que es el mejor padre del mundo y cuando dice que ya no tienen la misma química. Dios, es una historia horrible. Ojalá nada de esto hubiera pasado...
Le pongo 3/5 porque como ya dije, no me parece mala, ni excelente, es tan solo un diario y una historia de vida. -
This book is very inspirational where the novel is written as first person to get the reader more involved in the action or in the event that's taken place which is the Holocaust. The novel is written by a young girl whom actually lived through this event and is hiding form the Nazis because she herself is a Jew. This book catches my attention because of the aspect in which she is writing everything that has happened and how she feels. It puts the reader in suspense and she puts such descriptive words that make me, the reader, see through her eyes. I really recommend this book to any reader, honestly.

Ohne Zweifel ein wichtiges Zeitdokument von unbeschreiblichem Wert, dessen Überleben allein schon an ein Wunder grenzt und den Opfern dieser schrecklichen Zeit ein Gesicht und eine Stimme gibt. Ein Werk, das eine Unmenge an Fragen aufwirft und auf unterschiedlichste Weise berührt. In dieser Fassung angereichert durch biographische und historische Betrachtungen, ergänzende Geschichten, Bilder und Dokumente sowie ältere Versionen der Tagebücher, die die schriftstellerische Entwicklung von Anne Frank illustrieren.

These short stories and essays capture Anne Frank's skill as a young writer and imagination. So many stories are filled with the wisdom she displays in her diary.
From Eve's Dream:
"This flower is much happier than the rose. It doesn't care about the praise of others. The rose lives only for and by admiration: if she doesn't get this, she has no other reason to be glad. Her outward splendor is for others; inside she is empty and, therefore, without happiness. " -
Annie's work is inspirational and it's a reality of one's activities on earth sojourn.

I read this in one of my high school literature classes where we had many sessions of reading and reflecting. I found this book to be very inspiring and fascinating as it pertains to such a different time and it is based on a real life incident. I would love to take the time to re-read this if I get the opportunity!

Sono passati almeno trent'anni da quando lessi questo libro a scuola. Rileggendolo oggi, trovo che il diario sia un modo molto diretto per imparare la storia. Il terribile contesto in cui si svolge emerge dalla lettura, pagina dopo pagina. Non si tratta di una mera trasposizione di eventi storici con date e numeri, qui la realtà è viva, più viva che mai, e nella lettura ci si lascia trasportare dalla quotidianeità di Anne, dei suoi familiari e degli amici segregati nel loro rifugio segreto.
Appassionante, devastante. C'è un'involontaria atmosfera di thriller, un giallo così ben riuscito ma purtroppo non è finzione. Chi ha tradito i Frank? Vorrei tanto saperlo, ma non ci sono certezze.
Questo diario fa riflettere, dato che si colloca in un periodo storico così spaventosamente vicino.
Per il resto, il libro oltre al diario riporta anche fotografie di Anne nel corso della sua breve vita, racconta la travagliata storia del libro nel suo percorso di pubblicazione, accenna ai lavori teatrali e alle trasposizioni cinematografiche che ne conseguirono. Inoltre propone anche due versioni alternative del diario. La prima fu la versione scritta di getto da Anne (lei infatti ebbe anche il tempo di riscriverlo con una sintassi più corretta e forse più romanzato). La seconda versione proposta è quella rivista dal padre. Non cambia di molto, non ci sono parti scandalose, nulla da censurare per i nostri tempi.
In sostanza, è doloroso rileggerlo ma farlo apre molto la mente. Anche per omaggiare Anne e il popolo ebraico. -
Que buen libro, probablemente el ultimo que termine en el 2014, fue muy bueno para terminar el año. Todos sabíamos como iba a terminar el libro antes de leerlo pero nunca me imagine encontrar un niña tan viva sueños y en reflexiones y con tan alta capacidad literaria que la vez crece mientras avanza el libro. Dejo una de las reflexiones finales que me encanto, parafraseo " a los adultos la vida le resulta más fácil que a los jóvenes, ellos ya tienen su mente formada en cambio los jóvenes con todos los días cambian de opinión sobre las cosas lo cual hace mucho mas difícil vivir" disculpe cualquiera que esté leyendo el mal parafraseo de su pensamiento pero me encanto!

When I started this book I thought it was boring and unworthy. But now that I finished it I will never not feel sad when I'll hear the name Anne Frank.
I don't think there has ever exected such a pure, beautiful and innocent soul like hers. The end of this story was tragic and unfair, but that's something that everyone knows. The world is cruel and it's not good and it never was for people like Anne who deserve to be in a better place.
This ending really changed my opinion about this book. And I rate it 5/5 stars. -
Cuando leo libros de este tipo solo me dan ganas de una cosa: matar a Hitler mil veces mas aunque ya lo esté. Increíble como narra Ana todo. Sobre todo sus sentimientos pese a la situación que se encuentra. Le llegas a coger mucho cariño...yo lloré muchisímo las dos veces que vi la película. Brutal.
-
Se que no se puede juzgar a un diario con una calificación debido a que es algo personas pero hubieron momentos en los que sencillamente se me hizo muy repetitivo. Leí este libro por mi clase de Literatura y, honestamente, creo que me hubiera gustado mucho mas si lo hubiera leído por mi cuenta. Me gusto mucho 4 y 1/2 estrellas.

When I finished this book I was filled with mixed emotions; knowing the author would never have the joy or satisfaction of knowing her works would live beyond her life, and beyond her generation. The writing was intriguing and articulate, and she couldn't have done a better job at bringing her circumstances to life. So real and so poignant.
-
It was a good book. A must read.

Great

Tear jerking

I've read this before, but on re-reading it, and after visiting her secret annexe about six weeks ago, it definitely was an emotional read.
-
I love learning about the holocaust and anne frank's story has put a very different pov in my mind to think about which is great. Really enjoyed reading this.
