The Secret Diary of the Holocaust

The Secret Diary of the Holocaust tells the extraordinary tale of 14-year-old Polish girl Rutka Laskier, who was murdered at Auschwitz in 1943, as told through her half-sister Zahava Scherz's journey to Poland to uncover her sister's story. In a rare instance where a historical figure is also an author, Rutka's diary records her life in the ghetto of Bedzin in 1943, detailing Nazi atrocities and personal growth.
