In the annals of history, few figures loom as large as Anne Frank. Her diary, written while she was hiding from the Nazis during World War II, has become one of the most widely read and beloved books of all time.

But who was Anne Frank beyond the pages of her diary? What was her life like before the war? How did she cope with the horrors of the Holocaust? And what has been her legacy in the years since her death?

In Anne Frank: The Life, The Afterlife, acclaimed biographer Melissa Müller provides a comprehensive and compelling account of Anne's life and legacy. Based on extensive research and exclusive interviews, Müller offers a fresh perspective on Anne's life and the impact her story has had on the world.

The book begins with Anne's childhood in Frankfurt, Germany. Müller paints a vivid portrait of a happy and carefree girl who loved to read, write, and play with her friends. But with the rise of the Nazis, Anne's world began to crumble.

In 1942, Anne and her family were forced to go into hiding. They lived in a secret annex behind her father's office in Amsterdam for two years. During this time, Anne kept a diary in which she recorded her thoughts and feelings about the war and the persecution of her people.

In August 1944, Anne and her family were discovered by the Nazis. They were sent to a concentration camp, where Anne died of typhus in 1945.

The discovery of Anne's diary after the war brought her story to the world. It has since been translated into more than 70 languages and has become one of the most widely read books of all time. Anne's diary has inspired countless people around the world and has helped to raise awareness of the Holocaust.

In Anne Frank: The Life, The Afterlife, Müller explores the complex and often contradictory legacy of Anne Frank. She examines how Anne's story has been used to promote tolerance and understanding, but also how it has been exploited for political and commercial purposes.

Müller also tells the stories of the people who were closest to Anne, including her parents, her sister Margot, and her friend Peter van Pels. She reveals the struggles and sacrifices they made to protect Anne and the profound impact her death had on their lives.

Anne Frank: The Life, The Afterlife is a moving and thought-provoking account of a young girl who became a symbol of hope and resilience during one of the darkest chapters in human history. It is a must-read for anyone who is interested in Anne Frank's life and legacy.
