MI AMIGA ANNE FRANK
PICK- GOSLAR, HANNAH
Las conmovedoras memorias de Hannah Pick-Goslar, superviviente del holocausto, la mejor amiga de Anne Frank. Una mirada íntima a sus vidas y a su amistad.
Con cinco años, Hannah Pick-Goslar huyó con su familia a Ámsterdam para escapar de la Alemania nazi. El primer día de cole allí, entabló amistad con una niña extrovertida y avispada llamada Anne Frank. Durante unos años maravillosos las dos fueron inseparables y disfrutaron de tranquilas fiestas de pijamas y juegos infantiles en el barrio de Rivierenbuurt. Sin embargo, un día de 1942 las vidas de ambas cambiaron para siempre. La ocupación nazi se intensificó y de pronto Anne y su familia desaparecieron. Mientras Hannah se preguntaba por el paradero de su amiga, el destino de su propia familia tomó un nuevo rumbo: los arrestaron y enviaron a Westerbork, un campo de tránsito, antes de transportarlos a Bergen-Belsen. En este campo de concentración, rodeada de muerte y de miseria, Hannah recibió noticias asombrosas de su amiga y no dudó en poner su vida en peligro para ayudarla. «De niña vi al mundo que amaba desmoronarse y desaparecer, vi cómo un odio sin sentido lo destruía y, junto a él, a mi mejor amiga Anne». En este relato lleno de esperanza, fuerza y resistencia, Hannah Pick-Goslar narra una historia de supervivencia y un testimonio inolvidable sobre el poder eterno de la amistad, el amor y la memoria. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"Both heartbreaking and life-affirming" (Edith Eger, author of The Choice), the long-awaited memoir of Holocaust survivor Hannah Pick-Goslar, who shares an intimate look into her life and friendship with Anne Frank. In 1933, Hannah Pick-Goslar and her family fled Nazi Germany to live in Amsterdam, where she struck up a close friendship with her next-door neighbor, an outspoken and fun-loving young girl named Anne Frank. For several years, the inseparable pair enjoyed a carefree childhood of games, sleepovers, and treats with the other children in their neighborhood of Rivierenbuurt. But in 1942, Hannah and Anne's lives abruptly changed forever. As the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam progressed, Anne and the Frank family seemingly vanished, leaving behind unmade beds and dishes in the sink--but no trace of Anne's precious diary. Torn from her dear friend without warning, Hannah spent the next two years tormented by questions about Anne's fate, wondering if she had, by some miracle, managed to escape danger. In this long-awaited memoir, Hannah shares the story of her childhood during the Holocaust, from the introduction of anti-Jewish laws in Amsterdam to the gradual disappearance of classmates and, eventually, the Frank family, to Hannah and her family's imprisonment in the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. As Hannah chronicles the experiences of her own life during and after the war, she provides a searing look at what countless children endured at the hands of the Nazi regime, as well as an intimate, never-before-seen portrait of the most recognizable victim of the Holocaust. Culminating in an astonishing fateful reunion, My Friend Anne Frank is the profoundly moving story of childhood and friendship during one of the darkest periods in the world's history.
