I doubt I'll have the strength to read it.

She was shot dead by the Nazis in 1942. Her secret diary is to be published after 70 years in a bank vault

For almost 70 years, the secret Holocaust diary of the Polish Jewish teenager Renia Spiegel was sealed away in a New York bank vault.

Shot dead by the Nazis just as she reached adulthood in 1942, Renia's story was too painful for her surviving sister and mother to read.

Now, Renia's Diary: A Young Girl's Life in the Shadow of the Holocaust is finally to be published by her family. And it is already drawing comparisons to the diary of Anne Frank for its clarity and skillful writing.
