"With her colleagues, Helen Barr plays the violin and she seeks refuge from the everyday in the selfish magic of English literature and poetry. But this is Paris under the occupation and her family is Jewish. In March 1944, Helene and her family are arrested, taken to Drancy Transit Camp and soon sent to Auschwitz. This is her journal."--Publisher description.

Work Description
From April 1942 to March 1944, Hélène Berr, a recent graduate of the Sorbonne, kept a journal that is an intensely moving, intimate and harrowing text of astonishing literary maturity. Her last recorded words are 'Horror, horror, horror' - she and the rest of her Jewish family were sent to Auschwitz.
