Nina Siegal, Author of:

The Diary Keepers: World War II in the Netherlands, as Written by the People Who Lived Through It

In commemoration of Yom HaShoah, the Day of Remembrance of the Holocaust

Monday, May 6 at 1:00pm on Zoom

Drawing from an archive of more than 2,100 wartime diaries, this diverse and enlightening collection of excerpts from journals kept by Dutch citizens during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands is an essential contribution to the history of WWII. The Diary Keepers illuminates a part of history we haven’t seen in quite this way before, from the stories of a Nazi-sympathizing police officer to a Jewish journalist who documented daily activities at a transport camp. Nina Siegal brings us close to her diary keepers -making it impossible to turn away from the difficult, necessary questions their lives raise about survival, suffering, complicity, and memory.
