| Esther Hillesum born15 januari 1914, Middelburg died ca. 30 november 1943, Auschwitz |
| Esther Hillesum, born into a Dutch-Jewish family, rose to prominence in 1981 with the publication of an anthology of her diary, 38 years after her murder in Auschwitz. In her diary, she expressed her personal, inner development amid the turbulence of World War II and the absurdities of the Holocaust. The book is not only a powerful personal document but also offers some insight into how the anti-Jewish measures and deportations of those years affected Jews themselves | |
Sunshine Cleaners is a trio from Middelburg, Etty Hillesum's birthplace. Inspired by Etty's diary, they created this beautiful album. A worthy tribute to this remarkable woman.
