هیچ چیز کوبنده‌تر از خوندن آخرین صفحه دفترچه خاطرات کسی که سرشار از زندگی بود، نیست.

شاید بزرگ‌ترین مزیت و شاید تنها مزیت خوندن این کتاب، درک هرچه بیشتر و عمیق‌تر این موضوع باشه که تک‌تک کسانی که به طور مستقیم یا غیر مستقیم در هر جنگی کشته شدند، مثل ما احساسات داشتن، آرزو داشتن، کسانی رو دوست داشتن، گاهی با پدر و مادرشون(زن یا شوهرشون) مشاجره می‌کردن، قهر می‌کردن، آشتی می‌کردن و خلاصه مثل ما سرشار از میل به زندگی بودن. شاید خوندن این کتاب باعث بشه احترام بیشتری برای کلمه تعداد کشته‌شدگان قائل بشیم. شاید بهتر بفهمیم که آنه فرانک‌ها هم چه ساده می‌میرن، اگرچه هضمش خیلی سخته!ا


با این همه جهت آگاهی کسی که کتاب رو هنوز نخونده باید بگم این کتاب کاملا یک دفترچه خاطرات خصوصیه و توش هیچ چیز بخصوصی، از جمله اطلاعات تاریخی، یا نکته بخصوصی راجع به یهودیان، وجود نداره. همش خاطراتی از قبیل احساسات درونی آنه راجع به پسرها، دعواهاش با پدر یا مادرش، تولدها و کادوها، غذاهایی که خوردن، احساساتش نسبت به تغییرات بدنی‌اش و خلاصه هر چیزی که انتظار می‌ره در یک دفترچه خاطرات خصوصی پیدا بشه، هستش. از این نظر راستش تجربه خوندن کتاب برای من بسیار کسالت‌بار و خسته‌کننده بود و همونطور که گفتم فقط قطع شدن ناگهانی این صفحات هستن که شما رو شوکه می‌کنن.

علاوه‌براین باید اعتراف کنم که در بعضی موارد به صحت خاطرات شک می‌بردم. اینکه در چنان وضعیت وخیمی که کل اروپا داشته، با وجود 25 ماه محبوس بودن در یک دخمه با افراد غریبه و گیر افتادن در میان جر و بحث‌ها و دعواها و کمبودها و دلهره از وضع سایر یهودیان و اردوگاه‌ها، چطور کسی اینقدر کوول! بوده، برای من غیرعادی بود. برای هر انسان نرمالی پیش‌میاد که گاهی روز‌ها بی‌حوصله و بدبین باشه و غیر از این اگر باشه غیرطبیعیه. اما در این دفترچه خاطرات من چنین چیزی ندیدم و از این جهت بنظرم لااقل یکم دستچین شده بود. با همه این اوصاف، چه دستکاری شده باشه و چه نه، این موضوع چیزی رو راجع به احساس آدم نسبت به ارزش جان تک‌تک انسان‌ها، عوض نمی‌کنه.

I first read this book in the eighth grade. Our junior high school simultaneously did a preformance of the play. I remember that I enjoyed both the book and the play. I think I liked the love story aspect most of all -- what 13 year-old wouldn't? But I don't think I really "got" the book.
For her 13th birthday the German-born Anne Frank received a diary which she named Kitty. About a month after her birthday, her older sister, Margot, at the time just 16 years old, was "called up." For some time Otto Frank, Anne's father, had been preparing a hiding place for his family in a part of his business warehouse. With Margot's letter, the family left within 24 hours, strewing everything about and leaving a note with an address in Maastrich (hometown of musician Andre Reiu) to throw off officials. The family -- Anne's parents and her sister -- shared the secret hiding place with family friends and business partners, the Van Daan's, as Anne calls them though their real name was Van Pels, and the couple's 16 year-old son Peter. A couple months later a dentist, Mr. Dussel (really Pfeffer), joined the group and actually shared a room with Anne. Anne writes of the 25 months in hiding before being discovered in August 1944. Anne Frank died of typhus at Bergen-Belsen in early 1945, just months before the camp's liberation.
Anne is an incredible writer. She uses conversation to describe anecdotes, involving body positions, voice tone, etc. just like a novel. She is also intensely thoughtful. She had insight and wisdom beyond her years. Check out this excerpt written only three weeks before the families were betrayed.

"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.
It’s utterly impossible for me to build my life on a foundation of chaos, suffering and death. I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness, I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too, I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more"
- July 15, 1944

I think she may have gone to her diary most often when she was depressed (there are several very mournful entries) and a few times when she was overjoyed (as in when she got her first kiss). She flutuates often between opinions -- I hate my mother, I love my mother and I am hopeful, I am hopeless. I can relate to her changeability. She tells hilarious stories describing the events and worries of the secret annex -- especially entertaining is Mrs. Van Daan. Anne's attention to detail is so helpful in understanding the position of those in hiding. It makes me want to do better in keeping my own personal history. Each character is described so well and maintains his or her character, in a way type-cast in specific way. It would be interesting to hear how those 25 months passed from everyone else's perspective.

This book is so well written it is crazy and it is simultaneously entertaining and wise.

I'm really surprised by the number of people who thought this book was boring.
I could understand how an adult man might find the musings of a young girl rather dull, but how can people in general not find this journal utterly fascinating? Here is a teenage girl who up until the end wrote with the same emotional consistency as when she began. Whoever thinks this books is boring is because they simply fail to realize, or even imagine the conditions in which this diary was written under. To think how this young girls personal life continued beyond the details of the war is rather remarkable.
What would anyone else have written about in their diary as young boy or girl in the same predicament as the Franks?
Anne is surprisingly strong and mature for her age, impressively intelligent, and although there was a World War going on, her own particular world never abated. Her personal life was just as important, if not necessary in order for her to survive the day to day living conditions at the Annex.
Yes, there were brief moments of panic, but she had to live life, even if her living space was limited. She carried on as if being in hiding was a mere temporary inconvenience. She wasn't going to let that rob of her of her right to claim her passage into womanhood..her God given right to experience puberty, moodiness, emotions, and even love.

Here I thought I was about to read the semi-interesting scribbles of a blooming young lady, with ambiguous references to the war. But there is nothing cryptic about her diary. She shoots straight from the hip in this incredibly and shockingly honest account of what life was like for her and her family living in hiding during the WW. It's not what I expected at all. I expected something rather tame, but it's far from it. This young girl was very interesting and quite special.

You can't read this journal and think it's just an ordinary diary of a young girl, because it's not. Anne's diary is a representation of how other Jewish families lived and coped during the Nazi war. That's a pretty powerful thing. Many people don't realize how fortunate we are (thanks to Anne Frank, her Father Otto Frank and Miep Gies) to have some insight on how it must have been for the Jews to coexist this way. Because of Anne, we have an idea of how it was like to live under floorboards, in between walls, and behind bookshelves. This diary humanizes and brings back to life the Jewish people who mysteriously disappeared but who had not yet died.
I love this diary and I'm so grateful to have read it.


It must have been extremely difficult for her father Otto Frank to read his daughters diary after her death.

My reasons for not liking the book. I know many people feel that this is more like a life altering book for them. But that's truly not the same in my case.

1. The book is more like hardcore history which has never been my choice of subject

2. I personally did find the book rather dry as it's major gossip written by a girl whose family is in hiding during World War II

3. I'm 22 and I guess I've grown over a book like this


Although i do agree, some (I REPEAT SOME) parts of the book make you smile, but if you ask me I wouldn't suggest this one as it's not one amongst books of my choice/ reading preference.

Como um monstro chamado Hitler teve a ousadia de destruir os sonhos , a vida de uma adolescente com uma inteligência rara , à frente do seu tempo! Como esse livro marcou minha vida, como chorei e como passei a odiar ainda mais Hitler e seus seguidores! Esse livro fez me interessar pela temática do Holocausto e pelo sofrimento do povo Judeu.
Anne Frank eu te amo! Meu sonho é um dia ter a oportunidade de ir para a Holanda visitar o anexo que você e sua família se esconderam!


update.. Mais duas páginas do diário foram divulgadas recentemente pela fundação Anne Frank, as páginas mostram as indagações e considerações normais de uma adolescente da época em relação ao sexo, prostituição etc , vamos aguardar até que todo o conteúdo seja divulgado.

Update : no dia 09/06/2018 ,Morre aos 95 anos enfermeira que cuidou de Anne Frank. Gena Turgel foi prisioneira dos nazistas no campo de concentração nazista de Bergen-Belsen onde cuidou de Anne Frank quando ela estava com tifo.

I read this book in school many years ago and read it again with my boys. We love history and Anne F tells the story of a very important for the world.

A book I read during adolescence marks me as a moving and sad story—and to think that this book tells a true story. The reality of our world is exposed to sensitivity and accuracy and riddled with the truth, but the truth comes out of the mouths of children.

Het Achterhuis: Dagboekbrieven 12 juni 1942 - 1 augustus 1944 = The Diary of a Young Girl, Anne Frank

The Diary of a Young Girl, also known as The Diary of Anne Frank, is a book of the writings from the Dutch language diary kept by Anne Frank while she was in hiding for two years with her family during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands.

The family was apprehended in 1944, and Anne Frank died of typhus in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in 1945.

The diary was retrieved by Miep Gies, who gave it to Anne's father, Otto Frank, the family's only known survivor, just after the war was over. The diary has since been published in more than 60 languages. ...

First reads are like first kisses. They can be followed with others, but we remember them still. This book is one for me. I was twelve or thirteen when I read it, freely, no one dictated I should. I found it in a book catalogue from school or my older sister's bookshelf. That part is blurred. How I felt has never left me.

I felt that Anne Frank was talking to me. She was saying things I thought. She was the friend I wanted to have. That is writing with power. I was a hard to please child. With books and friends, I still am.

So, I recommend reading this if you haven't already. The title says it all. Keep that in mind. It is the diary of a young girl. Everything else is history.

Actually I wasn't going to review this book at all, since I read it way back in the seventies, and if I remember correctly, did not finish it.

But yesterday, just for the heck of it, I went through some one-star reviews. Two things I noticed immediately - most people disliked the book because it was boring, and Anne had a sanctimonious attitude. They were of the opinion that the book became a classic only because of historical reasons. Looking at it dispassionately, I have to agree.

I was even more interested in the negative comments on those reviews. Most people were angry at the reviewer because they had the temerity to criticise Anne, A HOLOCAUST VICTIM, for God's sake! Whatever be the quality of her writing, the consensus was that the author was a saint and therefore above any kind of criticism. This viewpoint seems to me rather silly - anything published for general consumption is open to both positive and negative reviews.

The second most common comment was that this was the diary of a teenaged girl, and never meant to be read for its literary merits - and I do agree with this. Those who criticise based on the quality of the writing is missing the mark, I feel. As with any diary, its primary merit is as a first-hand account of an important period in history.

I read it when I was roughly Anne's age. I could visualise for myself the claustrophobic nature of their apartment, and I wondered at a regime which forced a certain section of its citizens to hide themselves in fear of death. This was my first serious exposure to Holocaust literature: and it built in me a passion for history and a lifelong antagonism to fascism of any kind.

This was an important book in my life.

Lástima que al estar unido a un acontecimiento político catastrófico como fue el régimen nazi que suscita tantas opiniones encontradas este libro haya sido presa de críticas injustas al insinuar muchas veces que es valorizado más por lo que significa contra el nazismo que por su contenido.
Es cierto, la escritora es una niña, pero creo que se puede hablar muy bien lejos de todo ese ruido político. El diario de Ana Frank es una obra que tal vez no sea una pieza maestra de la literatura pero es una narración muy personal (como todo diario) pero a la vez muy lírica y concreta, que no le tiene que envidiar nada a ninguno de los best sellers que hay ahora por montones. Es una historia de descubrimiento, de nuevas experiencias y también de entusiasmo que inspira lástima y reflexión por el final que tuvo la autora. El pudo ser pero no fue, que tantas veces se ha visto en la historia de la humanidad. De una niña muy perspicaz, sensible y con un grado de perspicacia muy elocuente.
