Through the discovery of a precious friendship album which belonged to
12-year-old Alie, a Jewish schoolgirl in Amsterdam, Claudia Carli has
traced and preserved the lives of an entire class of girls, most of
whom did not survive the War.
Alie and her friends are brought touchingly and vividly to life, along
with their writings, in this extraordinary book. Their everyday hopes,
pleasures and longings are offset by the constant fear of a knock on
the door, a missing friend from class, a family member taken away.
Alie and her mother were to die in Sobibor in 1943. Alie's sister
Gretha survived Auschwitz and kept her promise to her sister to
preserve the friendship album so long as she hoped to live. This book
will sit alongside Anne Frank's diary and The Cutout Girl as a unique
window into occupied Amsterdam and the girls who will now never be
forgotten.
