able to confide everything to you  as I have never been able to confide in anyone  and I hope
you will be a great source of comfort and support.' In Amsterdam  in the summer of 1942  the
Nazis forced teenager Anne Frank and her family into hiding. For over two years  they  another
family and a German dentist lived in a 'secret annexe'  fearing discovery. All that time  Anne

vulnerable and more vital than ever. 'One of the greatest books of the twentieth
century'Guardian 'A modern classic'Julia Neuberger  The Times
