At last, in a new translation, this definitive edition contains entries about Anne’s burgeoning sexuality and confrontations with her mother that were cut from previous editions. Anne Frank’s The Diary of a Young Girl is among the most enduring documents of the twentieth century. Since its publication in 1947, it has been a beloved and deeply admired monument to the indestructible nature of the human spirit, read by millions of people and translated into more than fifty-five languages. Doubleday, which published the first English translation of the diary in 1952, now offers a new translation that captures Anne’s youthful spirit and restores the original material omitted by Anne’s father, Otto—approximately thirty percent of the diary. The elder Frank excised details about Anne’s emerging sexuality, and about the often-stormy relations between Anne and her mother. Anne Frank and her family, fleeing the horrors of Nazi occupation forces, hid in the back of an Amsterdam office building for two years. This is Anne’s record of that time. She was thirteen when the family went into the “Secret Annex,” and in these pages, she grows to be a young woman and proves to be an insightful observer of human nature as well. A timeless story discovered by each new generation, The Diary of a Young Girl stands without peer. For young readers and adults, it continues to bring to life this young woman, who for a time survived the worst horrors the modern world had seen—and who remained triumphantly and heartbreakingly human throughout her ordeal.

The Diary of Anne Frank: The Critical Edition is the most comprehensive and informative study of the diary and of Anne's life and death ever assembled. Prepared by The Netherlands State Institute for War Documentation, it contains previously published material from the diary that came to light in 1998, and compares the three versions of the diary itself: Anne's original entries; the diary as she edited it in the hiding place of the Secret Annex ; and the most familiar version, edited by Anne's father and a Dutch publishing house after WWII, which expurgated certain family and sexual references. Every aspect of the diary -- including Anne's handwriting and the paper used -- is meticulously examined, providing compelling proof and historical affirmation of its poignant testament. Absorbing biographical information on the Frank family enhances Anne's personal perceptions, 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 -- adds a new dimension to this tragic, still resonant story THE DEFINITIVE EDITION • Discovered in the attic in which she spent the last years of her life, the remarkable diary that has become a world classic—a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and an eloquent testament to the human spirit.Updated for the 75th Anniversary of the Diary's first publication with a new introduction by Nobel Prize–winner Nadia Murad“The single most compelling personal account of the Holocaust... remains astonishing and excruciating.”—The New York Times Book ReviewIn 1942, with Nazis occupying Holland, a thirteen-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. The reader may wish to bear in mind that much of this edition is based on the "b" version of Anne's diary, which she wrote when she was around fifteen years old. Occasionally, Anne went back and commented on a passage she had written earlier. These comments are clearly marked in this edition. Naturally, Anne's spelling and linguistic errors have been corrected. Otherwise, the text has basically been left as she wrote it, since any attempts at editing and clarification would be inappropriate in a historical document Het Achterhuis is de titel van het dagboek van Anne Frank (1929-1945) voor het eerst uitgegeven op 25 juni 1947. Het is genoemd naar het onderduikpand Het Achterhuis op de Prinsengracht en is het verhaal van een ondergedoken jong Joods meisje ten tijde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Het is wereldwijd een van de meest gelezen boeken. Sinds 2009 staat Annes dagboek op de Werelderfgoedlijst voor documenten van UNESCO. ---------- Also contained in: [Works of Anne Frank](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL2931445W) The Diary As Anne Frank Wrote It.
