Abstract:
On May 10th, the day the Nazis attacked the West and invaded Belgium, a young teenager starts a journal which he keeps until the liberation of Brussels in September 1944.
He tells of growing up among the upheaval of war, hunger, cold and destruction, trying all the while to pursue a demanding high school education.
The book is a moving and richly detailed account of a time of fear and anguish and the yearning for the ultimate victory over tyranny and death.
This almost day-by-day diary turns out to be one of the most compulsively readable war narratives, as seen from the civilian side.
