'An extraordinary book . . . vivid and heart-breaking' The Jewish
Chronicle 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.
