Book Reviews of Rutka's Notebook: A Voice from the Holocaust

Book Review: Rutke's notebook
Summary: 5 Stars

Great book, makes you realize how bad things got for the Jewish people during second world war. A sad but poignant reminder that 'bad' people use war as an excuse to commit horrific crimes against humanity.

Summary of Rutka's Notebook: A Voice from the Holocaust

Rutka Laskier, a 14-year-old Jewish girl in the town of Bedzin in Poland, died in Auschwitz in 1943. But she left behind a notebook in which she recorded her thoughts, fears and dreams. Some are the musings of any adolescent girl; others are the despairing cries of an individual caught in history's vortex. Now, after 60 years in the keeping of a friend, that notebook has been recovered - and it opens a unique, moving window into the everyday life of Polish Jews caught in the throes of Adolf Hitler's Final Solution. Hailed as the "Polish Anne Frank," Rutka Laskier now speaks to us across the decades: a witness to evil, a voice for the silent, and a timeless symbol of resolve. The editors of TIME add annotations, photos, maps, and quotations that help bring this tragic era into compelling focus for today's readers.
