From April 1942 to February 1944, Hélène Berr, a young Jewish student, kept her diary in occupied Paris. Through her words, between relative carefreeness and anxiety, the young woman shares her daily life as the trap, step by step, closes around her. Her striking clarity and talent as a writer make Hélène Berr’s diary a unique and precious testimony.
The walk through the Quartier latin is accompanied by readings of excerpts from the Diary, placed in context with the situation of Jews in Paris under the Occupation. Duration: 2h. Level: good walkers Meeting point: indicated a few days before the walk. Book
