The book has been compared to The Diary of Anne Frank .

Elizabeth, who changed her name from Ariana, remembers her sister as "a very quiet and a very pensive girl".
She told Bbc Arts correspondent Rebecca Jones her older sister was "like my surrogate mother".
"She was very intelligent. She was The Head of the literary programme in her school. And she was very, very kind and always thoughtful. "

Its pages give a first-hand account of bombing raids, being forced to go into hiding and The Disappearance of other Jewish families from the Przemysl ghetto Set Up by The Nazis in 1942.

She was shot dead In July 1942 at the age of 18 by German soldiers who discovered her hiding in The Attic of A House after she had escaped from the ghetto.
Diary entry - 7 June 1942Wherever I look, there is bloodshed. Such terrible pogroms. There is killing, murdering. God Almighty, for the umpteenth Time I humble myself in front of you, help us, save us! Lord God, let us live, I beg You, I want To Live ! I've experienced so little of life. I don't want to die. I'm scared of death. It's all so stupid, so petty, so unimportant, so small. Today I'm worried about being ugly; tomorrow I might stop thinking Forever .
