“Book Descriptions: Eva Heyman began her diary in the city of Nagyvárad in northern Transylvania (the modern Oradea, Romania) on 13 February 1944. Her notes cover a period of just under three months, during which time she witnessed and experienced all aspects of the German occupation of the city and the repression of the Jews there. One of a very few diaries written by young people in this region of Europe during the war, Eva's diary offers a close-up contemporaneous view of the decimation of a fragment of Hungary's Jewish community.” DRIVE
