Opis

Year 2015 is a year of celebration because of the fact, that it is 70 years ago since the ending of World War 2. On that occasion this Danish book has been translated into English. It is an insider story in line with The Diary of Anne Frank. The translator writes: My father, Jorgen Rytter (1923-2005), took notes when he was imprisoned in Germany, from 1943 and to the ending of World War 2. Unfortunately those precious notes disappeared when my parents house burned down to the ground in 1949. I was born in 1951, and in 1959 my father began to write from memory what he had been through, and I remember that he, many times, said to my mother, that the book wrote itself. It was meant to be written. It is a rare and horrendous story. He was 20 years of age when he got caught. He was a member of a resistance group situated in Aarhus in Denmark. Six persons from that group were tortured and killed by the Gestapo and the rest of the resistance group were sent to Germany as war prisoners, including my father. The year, 2014, I have spent a lot of time translating the Danish 1st Edition from 1960 into English. I really hope that Ive caught the spirit as in the original Danish writing published by Gyldendal in Denmark 1960. Jorgen Rytter was a very young man in an utterly hopeless situation, but he survived. Read his story "
