whymaggiemay: This book details the efforts of a young Dutch woman and her fiance in the Dutch resistance where they found hiding places for Jews and then supported them through their imprisonment. Both paid a very high price for their kindness.
srdr: Both books show the heroism of individual women during WW II. A Train in Winter tells a group story; Anne Frank Remembered reveals the risks taken by Miep Gies and her husband to help the Frank family.
I have read everything about Anne Frank that I could get my hands on. She has been a hero of mine for a very long time. Another hero is Miep Gies. When I finally had a chance to read her version of the German occupation and her time caring for the Franks, I jumped on it. Throughout the story, I learned things about Miep and Jan (her husband), which I never knew and which further made me realize what amazing people they were. Miep also gets into what happened on the day the Frank family was taken into custody and what was happening downstairs. I enjoyed this book from beginning to end and believe it is essential reading for those who are interested in World War II from the perspective of those who were on the outside of looking in. ( )
This book provided much information regarding moral people who risked their lives during the Second World War. It was also interesting to learn how very difficult and tragic the lives of many Dutch were at this time and after the war ended. The writing could have been clearer, and I would have liked more in depth discussion about why these people took the possibly fatal chances they did. ( )
On dirait que Miep ne peut oublier un instant ses protégés… Anne Frank

Prologue
Je n'ai rien d'héroïque. Je ne suis que le maillon final de la longue, très longue chaîne de braves Hollandais qui ont fait ce que j'ai fait ou plus – beaucoup plus – en cette période sombre, terrible, à jamais présente dans le cœur de ceux d'entre nous qui en furent les témoins. Il n'est pas un jour où je ne songe à ce qui s'y passa. [...]
Les réfugiés
I
En 1933, je vivais chez mes parents adoptifs, les Nieuwenhuisen, au numéro 25 de la Gaaspstraat, où je partageais une agréable petite chambre mansardée avec ma sœur adoptive, Catherina. [...]

That same Dutch policeman later told me that when he had gone to Switzerland to interview Mr. Frank on the subject and had mentioned that I was being investigated, Mr. Frank had told him, "If you suspect Miep, you suspect me, too."
