ANNE FRANK: THE DIARY OF

English by B. M. Mooyaart. Fo York, Doubleday, $3.

: By EMERSON PRICE It is extremely unlikely that you ever heard of Anne

Frank. She has been dead seven years. Had she lived she would now be a young woman. She was only 15 when she

died in a Nazi concentration 8 Jew,

~ Yet this little 2rl-who was|

neither child nor woman, but had Teached th half-way 5 between the two! ~— left behin her an extraor-}

will outlive the * brut alities . of our age. It is® published this week under the; #.J title ANNES i FRANK: THE Apne Frank DIARY OF A YOUNG GIRL.

If you read this book in: con- |

stant awareness of what ultimate- | ly happened to Anne it must] touch your heart very deeply; and if you experience now and] again a catch in the throat, you are then on the side of the angels. For here, in all its astounding innocence and honesty is the story of adolescence, untouched and uncorrupted by any invasion of hypocrisy. And, what is more, it reveals human charactér at its best. Anne had reached the point in life where she must reject childhood. She relinquished it brave-|

ly, yet she was unable to accept

the stupidities which often pass,

for adult behavior, She was forced into the most trying of circumstances—in hiding from the Gestapo with members of her own and other Jewish families, They. were finally. dis‘covered and imprisoned. There the diary’ ends. She was never at a loss for wit or humor, or for observations upon life that are genuinely brilliant, carrying with them the weight of good sense and undamaged logic. - Underlying the entire’ diary— ages 12 to 15—there is a vein of sweetness so unrelated to pretense that it is altogether beautiful. This book must stand as an eternal indictment of the sins of modern man.

. And if there is a place where:

justice forever prevails there!
