- Éva Heyman was born in Nagyvárad, Hungary (present-day Oradea, Romania) in 1933. Her parents Ágnes and Bela Heyman divorced when she was very young and she went to live with her maternal grandparents, while maintaining occasional contact with both her mother and father. Her mother remarried to a famous Hungarian author, Béla Zsolt. Éva began her diary at age 13 in February 1944, as Nazi Germany invaded Nagyvárad, and ended it on May 30. Three days later, she was deported to the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz-Birkenau and murdered in the gas chamber in October 1944. Her mother and stepfather survived World War II. Ágnes found Éva's diary in 1945 and had it published in Hungarian. It was translated and published in English as The Diary of Éva Heyman in 1974.

Though the diary only covers a few months, the entries are very detailed, and you can see Eva's life -- and the lives of all the Jews in Hungary -- crumble all to pieces. Recommended.
Fact of note: Eva's stepfather was Bela Zsolt, a well-known Hungarian writer and politician, who wrote his own Holocaust memoir, Nine Suitcases.… (meer)
