520    The long-hidden diary of a young Polish woman's life 
       during the Holocaust, translated for the first time into 
       English Renia Spiegel was born in 1924 to an upper-middle 
       class Jewish family living in southeastern Poland, near 
       what was at that time the border with Romania. At the 
       start of 1939 Renia began a diary. 'I just want a friend. 
       I want somebody to talk to about my everyday worries and 
       joys. Somebody who would feel what I feel, who would 
       believe me, who would never reveal my secrets. A human 
       being can never be such a friend and that's why I have 
       decided to look for a confidant in the form of a diary.' 
       And so begins an extraordinary document of an adolescent 
       girl's hopes and dreams. By the fall of 1939, Renia and 
       her younger sister Elizabeth (née Ariana) were staying 
       with their grandparents in Przemysl, a city in the south, 
       just as the German and Soviet armies invaded Poland. Cut 
       off from their mother, who was in Warsaw, Renia and her 
       family were plunged into war. Like Anne Frank, Renia's 
       diary became a record of her daily life as the Nazis 
       spread throughout Europe. Renia writes of her mundane 
       school life, her daily drama with best friends, falling in
       love with her boyfriend Zygmund, as well as the agony of 
       missing her mother, separated by bombs and invading 
       armies. Renia had aspirations to be a writer, and the 
       diary is filled with her poignant and thoughtful poetry. 
       When she was forced into the city's ghetto with the other 
       Jews, Zygmund is able to smuggle her out to hide with his 
       parents, taking Renia out of the ghetto, but not, 
       ultimately to safety. The diary ends in July 1942, 
       completed by Zygmund, after Renia is murdered by the 
       Gestapo. Renia's Diary has been translated from the 
       original Polish, and includes a preface, afterword, and 
       notes by her surviving sister, Elizabeth Bellak. An 
       extraordinary historical document, Renia Spiegel survives 
       through the beauty of her words and the efforts of those 
       who loved her and preserved her legacy.
