COMPARED TO THE DIARY OF ANNE FRANK There are some who suggest that if one wishes to understand what happened in Germany after 1933 we should read biographies of private citizens; Lilli Jahn is the ideal person to prove this affirmation. This biography is based on letters that she sent and received in a concentration camp in Breitenau describing her daily life, her anxieties and sadness. These documents constitute the most extraordinary letters ever left by a victim of a concentration camp. This is a historical document of incalculable value, a true hidden treasure.
