About this listen

A most captivating and intriguing true story of a young Jewish girl's life during a World War, and how she survived the Holocaust.

Through the pages of this rediscovered and recently translated diary, we find ourselves in the midst of a wartime drama in Budapest, Hungary, as a teenage girl evades capture, ultimately escapes, and emigrates to America.

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?

if it had been less about her and more about the war

What was most disappointing about Madelaine D. Lang’s story?

It was so full of teenage self pity I wondered why she even bothered to translate it

What didn’t you like about Sandra Kaye’s performance?

She was too close to the microphone and always sounded breathless

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

disappointment

Any additional comments?

She was just a poor little rich girl deprived of all her precious priveleges by a rather silly war. She needed to remember there were Jews worse off than herself and to stop wallowing in stupid teenage self pity.

oh dear what can the matter be?
