A beautiful novel exploring the little-known story of
Anne Frank's life before she went into hiding – from bestselling,
award-winning author Alice Hoffman and published in cooperation
with the Anne Frank House.
In soaring prose, bestselling author Alice Hoffman brings Anne
Frank to life on the page, drawing from her extensive research in
Europe and the United States, to depict her experiences from the
moment the Nazis invade the Netherlands until her family is forced
into hiding in the annex of her father's office building at 263
Prinsengracht, in Amsterdam.


As state-sponsored discrimination turns ordinary people into monsters,
the Jews of the Netherlands are caught in an inescapable
swell of violence and hate, and Anne is shaped as both a young woman
and as a writer who will change the world.


WHEN WE FLEW AWAY features archival content provided
by the Anne Frank House, as well as information about Otto
Frank's desperate bids to get his family to safety in America gathered
from correspondence between Otto Frank and Nathan Straus,
Jr., from the Straus Historical Society's Archives.
