Renia Spiegel's diary dates from 1939-1942.
On April 2, 1939, she wrote:
"I am learning French now and if there is no war, I can go to France." I should have traveled but Hitler took over Austria, so Czechoslovakia, and who knows what he will do next.In a way, it also affects my life. "
July 6, 1940:
"What a terrible night! Cruel! What a bad luck, I was there with my eyes wide open, trembling as if I had a fever, I could hear the sound of the wheels again Oh, Lord God, help me We have a truck passed by, I could hear a horn whip, has this happened to us, or for someone else? pushed me energetically as if all of me was blowing. "
July 15, 1942:
"Remember this day, remember, you will talk to future generations, we have been closed in the ghetto for eight hours today, I live here now, the world is separated from me and I am I am separated from the world, the days are awful and the nights are not better at all, every day brings more lives lost and I continue to pray to Almighty God to kiss my dear mother.
Oh, great God, give us health and strength. Live. The hope shrinks so quickly. There are fragrant flowers in front of the house, but who needs flowers? And Zygmunt – I saw him from afar today, but he has not left yet. Lord, please, protect his dear head. But why can not I curl up against him? God, let me kiss my dear mother. "
