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.\n\n\nPraise forThe Diary of a Young Girl\n\nA truly remarkable book.\nThe New York Times\n\nOne of the most moving personal documents to come out of World War II.\nThe Philadelphia Inquirer\n\nThere may be no better way to commemorate the fiftiethanniversary of the end of World War II than toreread\nThe Diary of a Young Girl,a testament to an indestructible nobility ofspirit in the face of pureevil.\nChicago TribuneThe single most compelling personal account of the Holocaust . . . remains astonishing and excruciating.\nThe New York Times Book Review\n\nHow brilliantly Anne Frank captures the self-conscious alienation andnave self-absorption of adolescence.\nNewsday\n\n\nReview\n\n\nA truly remarkable book.\n\nThe New York Times\n\nOne of the most moving personal documents to come out of World War II.\n\nThe Philadelphia Inquirer\n\nThe new edition reveals a new depth to Annesdreams, irritations, hardship, and passions. . . .

Restored in this Definitive Edition are diary entries that were omitted from the original edition. These passages, which constitute 30 percent more material, reinforce the fact that Anne was first and foremost a teenage girl, not a remote and flawless symbol. She fretted about and tried to cope with her own sexuality. Like many young girls, she often found herself in disagreements with her mother. And like any teenager, she veered between the carefree nature of a child and the full-fledged sorrow of an adult. Anne emerges more human, more vulnerable and more vital than ever.\n\nAnne Frank and her family, fleeing the horrors of Nazi occupation, hid in the back of an Amsterdam warehouse for two years.
