The recurring image of Lies is an interesting one. The fact that Lies continues to surface in Anne's mind reveals some guilty feelings on Anne's part. She is constantly aware that she is far better off than most European Jews, including some of her dearest friends. The recurring image of Lies is an important psychological view into Anne. She cannot help but to compare her situation with that of non-Jewish people (their protectors, for example) and feel rightfully jealous--but she also feels guilty about the people she was not able to save.
