Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges. Foxing to endpages and foredges.

Diary of a Girl in Changi is the moving personal account of a young girl living amid hardship and adversity. Written on scraps of paper kept hidden in her quarters, Sheila Allan's diary records the daily lives of those interned in Changi.

On the one hand, these were years of a wasted youth; on the other, they provided a rich learning experience in a community of close comradeship. Tolerance, humour, creativity, and an undying hope for the future colour her memories of this period.

This edition includes information on the Changi quilts. These embroidered squares, individually created and signed by the women internees, were sewn into three quilts. (back cover)
