En juillet, ils s'installent clandestinement dans "l'Annexe" de l'immeuble du 263, Prinsenchracht. En 1944, ils sont arrêtés sur dénonciation. Anne est déportée à Auschwitz, puis à Bergen-Belsen, où elle meurt du typhus au début de 1945, peu après sa soeur. Son journal, qu'elle a tenu du 12 juin 1942 au 1er août 1944, est un des témoignages les plus bouleversants qui nous soient parvenus sur la vie quotidienne d'une famille juive sous le joug nazi. Depuis la première publication de ce journal aux Pays-Bas en 1947, la voix de cette jeune fille pleine d'espoir hante des millions de lecteurs dans le monde entier."

Mais que Marianne est belle quand elle tombe dans les collines, un jour de pluie et de vent.
