Publisher Description: UPDATED AND FILLED WITH STRIKING NEW REVELATIONS, THE BESTSELLING, SUPERB BIOGRAPHY THAT HONORS IN FULL A LIFE WE THOUGHT WE KNEW (NEWSWEEK) Praised as remarkable, meticulous, and long overdue, Anne Frank: The Biography, originally published in 1998, still stands as the definitive account of the girl who has become the human face of the Holocaust. Full of revelations, M ller's richly textured narrative returned Anne Frank to history, portraying the flesh-and-blood girl unsentimentalized and so all the more affecting. Now, sixteen years after the book first appeared, much new information has come to light: letters sent by Otto Frank to relatives in America as he sought to emigrate with his family, the identity of other suspects involved in the betrayal of the Franks, and important details about the family's arrest and subsequent fate. Revised and updated with more than thirty percent new material, this is an indispensable volume for all those who seek a deeper understanding of Anne Frank and the brutal times in which she lived and died. |
