In Memoriam AF

Yesterday we should have remembered the birthday of one of Holland's most famous and wellknown writers. Although she wrote only one book virtually everyone has heard of her. Her work became one of the lasting testaments of a war of which so much has been written. Lots of briliant books and so much utter crap.

Hers though is briliant.
It is briliant because it describes her daily life, her growing up, her teenage years under the most extreme circumstances

Yesterday Anne Frank would have turned 79.
We all forgot.

And that's not only because there are soccermatches going on.
