Barbara Morrill explores the diary of Etty Hillesum, a young Jewish woman from 1940s Amsterdam who underwent Jungian analysis. Unlike the well-known Anne Frank, Hillesum is less familiar but equally inspiring with her detailed accounts of life during early World War II.
This book highlights how Hillesum’s resilience and personal growth during such a difficult time can inspire us to face todays challenges with similar strength. Through Hillesum’s journey of self- discovery and development, Morrill encourages us all to grow and evolve.
