The diary of Anne Frank though incomplete, has a good and meaningful ending. The last chapter in the diary summarizes the struggles Anne has to endure in her confinement. She questions the complexity of human nature and the balance of good and evil. Her maturity is shown when she realizes the good and bad come from the same root- human nature. Anne also parallels this to her own struggle of “turning my heart inside out, the bad part on the outside” illustrating the need to protect herself from the evil with evil.
The end of the chapter also shows Anne’s discovery of her own potential as an ambitious teenager. However, the unfulfilled dreams due to her unfortunate predicament, is heartbreaking.
In conclusion, this book leaves us with bittersweet sorrow as we have journeyed with Anne through maturity but yet experiences the shattered dreams of this extraordinary girl because of war.
