Thank you for this. I purchased this book in the 1980s (at Coliseum Books!), but have remained afraid to open it... (I have a lot of books like that.) I am so glad to have met these excerpts and her brave, bright mind at work in your email today.

Hi Nellie

I “enjoy” reading Holocaust literature and yet I too had never heard of Etta’s writings. Such a beautiful, sad, insightful writer. Leaving out the mass deportations (for now!) I do see a direct correlation between the Trump world we are all living in and the frightful world of Nazi Germany. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on Etty’s journal.
