THE WORKS OF ANNE FRANK

by Anne Frank ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 17, 1959

This is a republication of Anne Frank's diary, along with a few stories and pieces she had written, and a new introduction by Ann Birstein and Alfred Kazin. The diary, which has already sold two million and a half copies, is a classic of our time and Anne Frank, who has become both a legend and a symbol- is also the instrument through which the Jewish victimization at the hands of the Third Reich was really grasped--and made endurable. The introduction is tender and touching and gives a little background on the extraordinary circumstances through which it survived- while ""the real miracle is that in the young girl who wrote them life was so strong to begin with.
