Comments for Anne Frank Life and Times »
Posted By whiteaglesoaring 10 months, 1 week ago in Political NewsAnne Frank, Diary of a Young Girl is now on just about every school reading list in the US and probably the world. I read Anne Frank's Diary when I was young and again when I was an adult. It seemed to be a very personal introduction to the life and thought of a child becoming an adult in trying times. Nearly every child can identify with the problem of growing up in what seems to be an evermore chaotic world of illusion, and most adults can remember something of that time in their life.
Anne Frank wrote her Diary of a Young Girl to be a novel in diary format. She called it Het Achterhuis (The Rear House) and described it as "een roman," a novel. After her death it was edited by her father and a ghost writer and represented as non-fiction. This was not Anne's intent or purpose. Anne Frank has been misrepresented by the promoters.
