Diary of Anne Frank
Hmmm, I'm not sure how to describe something that is considered to be such a classic. I find the perspective interesting. I mean, she's wondering when the invasion will come. I'm thinking June 6, 1944, but that's just a hunch. And some of the descriptions of the isolation are heartbreaking. Other times, Anne is kinda whiney. Of course locked in a closet, basically for several years with 7 others - who wouldn't be whiney? And it's not like teenagers don't crave to break away, but how can one break away when they can't get more than one room away? And yes, I'm curious about the passages that were ommitted.
