Há 80 anos... Casper ten Boom, um relojoeiro holandês que escondeu judeus durante a ocupação nazi


Entrada de 8 de Dezembro de 1939 do diário do relojoeiro holandês Casper ten Boom (18 de Maio de 1859 – 10 de Março de 1944), que escondeu judeus durante a ocupação nazi do seu país:

After I woke up and ate breakfast. I went straight to the clockshop to start my work. I had a lot of customers because the nazi soldiers had wristwatches that needed to be fixed. This one young fellow was really interested in my clock work because he too worked as clockmaker. I had lunch with him and we talked for hours on end. It was 4 p.m. when he finally left the shop and I realized I had to catch up on my work. Corrie was stuck with Betsie and I because the germans banned her work with retarted children. After I finished fixing a watch for Pickwick; I went on a walk with Corrie and Betsie. We explored our town like a dog looking for his bone. As we arrived back to the beje, Betsie dashed in and started making dinner. As I smelled the delicious pork, I dug into plate eating with gluttny. After dinner the day was over and I listened to the radio. Then I crawled up the wooden stairs and arrived to my bed. Finnally I got under the sheets and fell asleep.
