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.
