Even though the subject is sad her writting was uplifting to me - reminders on how to live today in my easy world compared to hers. She had much inspiration for someone so young and I am so grateful that I found her. This is a book I will grow old with - something I can pick up and read an entry and digest for the day. We all know Anne Frank - I suggest everyone get to know Etty!.. And summed up by saying Inspiration on how to live.

Eva Hoffman claimed For the first time, Etty Hillesum´s diary and letters appear together to give us the fullest possible portrait of this extraordinary woman. In the darkest years of Nazi occupation and genocide, Etty Hillesum remained a celebrant of life whose lucid intelligence, sympathy, and almost impossible gallantry were themselves a form of inner resistance. The adult counterpart to Anne Frank, Hillesum testifies to the possibility of awareness and compassion in the face of the most devastating challenge to one´s humanity. She died at Auschwitz in 1943 at the age of twenty-nine.
