In the original printed version of ‘The Diary of a Young Girl’ there is no acknowledgment that he had edited his daughter's writings nor that, in preparing the book, he had time and again made choices between two very different versions of Anne's diary entries.
En la edición original de «La casa de atrás» no viene indicado que él revisó los escritos de su hija, y tampoco que al componer el libro fue escogiendo fragmentos de dos versiones muy distintas del epistolario de Ana.
