Fynn Libri

Though her short life was vividly presented in Mister God, This is Anna, its huge success led to Fynn being inundated to write more about his experiences with her. Anna and the Black Knight introduces us to Mister John, a veteran of World War I and local schoolmaster, who was to have a profound effect on Anna. Anna's astonishing capacity for looking at things from fresh perspectives, and her fascination with mathematics and Mister God, stands her in good stead as her life is opened up to new things, such as school, priests and motor cars. This sequel also includes the full text of Anna's Book, reproductions of her own letters and writings. Her artless and transparent conversations speak to the heart and are recorded using her own unique and colourful spellings. The book is again illustrated throughout with Papas's unequalled drawings.

Anna was four years old when Fynn, then only 16 himself, found her wandering round London's Docklands one foggy night in the 1930s. Badly neglected and abandoned by her parents, he took her home to be cared for by his own family. The impact of this extraordinary child on Fynn, his friends and the people in their neighbourhood was to be immense. Nobody who met Anna could remain the same: this intelligent, lively, precocious chatterbox had an outlook on life which completely undercut adult pretensions and illusions. Anna's influence continues today. Anyone dipping into her thought-processes falls under the spell of her luminous innocence, wisdom and intimate relationship with 'Mister God'.

In 1974, Fynn told the story of Anna, a waif from London's East End whom he found wandering near the docks one foggy night. Mister God, This is Anna was the touching account of the remarkable friendship between an intuitive, intelligent and disconcertingly perceptive child and the young man of nineteen who befriended her. In the course of the extraordinary relationship that developed between them, Anna changed Fynns life forever, as her story changed the lives of millions of readers. Now Fynn brings us Anna's Book, a complilation of Anna's own writings, which Fynn has saved since her death. Fresh with the unexpected insights of a child, Anna's Book deals with such diverse and vital subjects as organized religion, the Bible, and Anna's relationships with her absent mother and with Fynn. But most of all, Anna's Book is about Mister God, more real and compelling to Anna than anyone or anything else in the world.
