Lit.: Lazarová, Dana – Kostková, Tereza: The Czech Anne Frank: Diary of Věrka Kohnová. In web ČRo Radio Prague, 22. 5. 2025 (článek + nahrávka k poslechu). – Cit.: In January 1942, the Kohn family boarded a transport at the Pilsen railway station and never returned. Other tenants moved into their apartment and their belongings were gradually lost. Everything disappeared, except for the diary that twelve-year-old Věrka Kohnová wrote, documenting the last tragic year of her life.
Journalist and writer Jana Poncarová was so moved by the twelve-year-old’s diary that she decided to publish a book based on the entries in collaboration with historian Jiří Sankot. The book titled “Diary of Věrka Kohnová” tells the moving story of a Jewish girl whose life was violently cut short by the Holocaust.
Czech Radio dramatized the book in one of its audio-series for the public. The following excerpt is from the day that Věrka, her parents and sister Hanka are packing the little they can take on the transport and saying goodbye to their home. (…)
